I thought of a new visualization. 
On one side could be all the different Tanaim and Amoroim and the other side shas. Each time a Tana or Amora appears on a specific Daf, a line connects his name to that Daf.

Does something like that exist yet?

Its a nice idea but would be hard to execute without manually labeling each occurence of a name. What do you do when multiple inviduals share the same name?

True. I just had this idea that it would be nice if the names on the daf were interactive in that you could click on them and see who they were, details about them, and find other of their statements in shas. I understand that this would be a huge undertaking, just another idea to keep in mind.
Also, including in work like this would be a lot of research into who's actually who and when names are similar or the same, which ones are which.

It's actually on our radar to do something like this.  Not immediately, but over the next few product cycles...
