Andy,
Let me recommend the IXmaps project. It is documenting the very question =
you are asking :)
http://www.ixmaps.ca
IXmaps is an interactive tool that enables internet users and =
researchers to study the route(s) that data packets take across North =
America, with 'interesting' sites highlighted along the way. It is =
currently under development. It has been supported by a research grant =
from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada's =
Image, Text, Sound and Technology program.
IXmaps is affiliated with the New Transparency Project and the =
Information Policy Research Program at theFaculty of Information, =
University of Toronto.
regards
Robert
