I love "HN Trends by sant0sk1", but it really needs to normalize for the change in traffic over time. Instead of a raw number of points, it should be a percentage of all points, otherwise, all graphs look like this:

- blcArmadillo 15y agoAgreed. HNTrends by qF looks pretty nice. If only it allowed you to compare multiple keywords. Looks like trends is a common theme with it showing up in http://ianburris.com/hnsearch/ http://ianburris.com/hnsearch/ too.
- templaedhel 15y agoYou can compare multiple keywords. Just separate by commas.

- robinwarren 15y agoyep, just submitted my hn trends entry here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2673357 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2673357 I tried the vs thing to allow multiple things to be compared but tbh it didn't really add a lot on the comparrisons I tried out. I went for giving a summary of the top stories for the search term instead with an indication of where the big discussions were.
- sant0sk1 15y agoI just pushed a change which adjusts the results to account for HN's growth. Let me know what you think!
