Visual Complexity
“VisualComplexity.com intends to be a unified resource space for anyone interested in the visualization of complex networks. The project’s main goal is to leverage a critical understanding of different visualization methods, across a series of disciplines, as diverse as Biology, Social Networks or the World Wide Web. I truly hope this space can inspire, motivate and enlighten any person doing research on this field”. cf. http://www.visualcomplexity.com/vc/

I like all of them - suberb. Very 2.0 -ish. At the first sight the projects seem to be from the same design studio, and no doubt there are plenty of silimarities and common features; colour palett, graphic elements likelines, dots, curves, visualized statistics, algorithm based computing, fractal outlook….
But if you have a closer look at them you will regocnize subtile differences and variatios. I love most the perfect bunny mandala in the project The Essence of Rabbit.

We researched with my own students web 2.0 from different point of views. One of them was the visual aspects of it. We found an interesting thing in finnish wikipedia. They had removed the artikel about visual aspects of web2.0 because they belive that there isn´t any identiable visual aspects in web2.0.
If you got some statistics or other data and you want it visualized then you might get some help from Many Eyes. http://services.alphaworks.ibm.com/manyeyes/app
