Map Monday: Map your email

Ever wondered what your email usage patterns are? Well, wonder no more, thanks to the geniuses at MIT.

They’ve created Immersion, a tool that analyses your Gmail or Microsoft Exchange email account, and creates a map of those you’ve had interactions with. Rather than generating a static snapshot, the tool also lets you customise the timeframe, as well as drawing larger circles for those you’ve emailed the most. If you want to see who you emailed more last year than this year, just drag the sliders. Or you could go right back to when your Gmail account was opened and see who you spoke to most back then.

While the tool does require explicit access to your email account, its creators have been transparent about what they do. The contents of your mails are never shown or accessed, and there’s even the option to delete all your data from the map when you log out.
