They Rule!!

we pay!

On the eve of this "historic" day while surfing for some political news I stumbled upon TheyRule. It is a website that indexes connections between companies or government institutions or between both of them.
"They Rule aims to provide a glimpse of some of the relationships of the US ruling class. It takes as its focus the boards of some of the most powerful U.S. companies, which share many of the same directors. Some individuals sit on 5, 6 or 7 of the top 500 companies. It allows users to browse through these interlocking directories and run searches on the boards and companies. A user can save a map of connections complete with their annotations and email links to these maps to others. They Rule is a starting point for research about these powerful individuals and corporations. "
It looks like it was last updated in 2004 but the site is still active with last post in 2006 so it is possible that data has been refreshed. Even if it wasn't refreshed it is still a rich source of information and a well thought out research tool.

To immediately start using it go to load map option and choose between recent of popular.

Digg!
