Create time-availability maps with Perl and Google Earth

From Kirk Brown, About.com Guide   September 3, 2008

This is an interesting read that not only has some excellent Perl programming examples, but also shows off how to interface with Google Earth. This set of programs shows how to jump in and parse email headers on your (in this case, gmail) email account, taking the time sent data and creating an 'availability map' so you can see who is generally available and when using Google Earth. Of course, like all reports, the more data you have to work with the more accurate a picture this will paint.
