Butterfat has a cool Google maps mashup that makes a map from the headers of an email message. Paste the raw source of an email message, and the sender’s, recipient’s, and intermediate servers are shown on a Google map up. The coolness of this particular app is probably greater than the actual utility, especially when analyzing one message at a time, but it suggests that applied to a corpus, geographic analysis of mail traffic could be quite interesting.
