The Spam World Map

I have found an interesting tool based on the Google Maps API and Host IP Info API. The tool basically translates domain names to a geographic location by showing on the map. The idea is pretty simple. But it is nice. :-)

Here is the link: http://map.butterfat.net/emailroutemap/

It was a very interesting finding because some days ago I was poetically thinking about exploiting geographical location and network information/usage patterns for some particular cases that I am investigating now. One of the results that I am particularly aware are related to a time zone aware scheduling approach.

Cheers,
