I wish to perform a social network analysis on a bunch of blogs, plotting who is linking to who (not just by their blogroll but also inside their posts). What software can perform such crawling/data-collecting/mapping ?
Thanks!

Nutch is a decent enough crawler, but you’d have to do your own analysis on the indexed data.
