Awesome I enjoyed making some trend charts, and the results are fun (i.e I added DevOps, Erlang, Elixir). I think there is a risk it could conceal too many errors and biases for it to be useful for trend analysis. Using services like Twitter and Reddit might introduce biases into your data skewing trends. The challenge is using data and not understanding the intent (is it positive, negative or neutral/sarcastic potentially negative/positive). Google Adwords is good at this. I applaud your effort; I hope you keep going but its a tough nut to crack. I use markets like Google Adwords Tools to do this at the moment, have you looked at it? I think more info around time, intent and volume.
