Great to see folks digging into this. Looker (where I work) is what you're seeing visualize and make the underlying datasets explorable. Our founder did a great blog post explaining how it works and how quickly these datasets yield interesting insights with just a few lines of code.
Full blog post explaining and walking through the process (and giving access to explore the data fully yourself, no SQL required) is here: http://looker.com/blog/hacking-hacker-news http://looker.com/blog/hacking-hacker-news
Felipe and all the other folks at Google have done a great job getting this project off the ground and we're psyched to partner with them. We're working on some new public datasets now, but if you have particular ones you'd like to explore, let us know.
What should we look at next? Census? Medicare?
