Is this code available on github?
Alternatively, you have the attention and the publicity, you could turn this into an a revenue producing product, sticking an ad somewhere on the page, and then providing it like a YTMND kind of "fill in the blank" system. At the very least, you could use the Romney thing as a springboard for a viral entry.
At the bottom, stick a "Make a graph for any project" link and commence.
At the very least, this could net you a decent handful of cash for minimal work, and, presumably, you already have the attention. Now take advantage of it before the spotlight moves off you.
Disclaimer: I say all this, not as a marketing type, but just as a geek who's run his own stuff for years, and I see a possibility to make a couple extra bucks with this well done implementation. Maybe it'd turn out to be a waste of time, maybe it'd score you some pizza and beer money every week, or maybe it'd serve as your entry as a "Social analytics" company or whatever. Either way, I think it's worth exploring.

- baby 14y ago> Is this code available on github? It's in the source code using the google Chart api [https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/index https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/index] <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.google.com/jsapi"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> // Load the Visualization API and the piechart package. google.load('visualization', '1.0', {'packages':['corechart']}); // Set a callback to run when the Google Visualization API is loaded. google.setOnLoadCallback(init); // Callback that creates and populates a data table, // instantiates the pie chart, passes in the data and // draws it. function drawRealtime() { var data = google.visualization.arrayToDataTable(headings.concat(likes)); var options = { title: 'Realtime Like Count For Mitt Romney', hAxis : {textColor: '#ffffff'}, colors: ['red','#004411'], legend: {position: 'none'} }; var chart = new google.visualization.LineChart(document.getElementById('realtime')); chart.draw(data, options); } function drawHistoric() { var data = google.visualization.arrayToDataTable(headings.concat([['1:59pm',12049076],['2:16pm',12048948],['2:30pm',12048820],['2:45pm',12048681],['3:00pm',12048559],['3:15pm',12048421],['3:30pm',12048297],['3:45pm',12048182],['4:00pm',12048077],['4:15pm',12047946],['4:30pm',12047807],['4:45pm',12047660],['5:00pm',12047509],['5:15pm',12047380],['5:30pm',12047247],['5:45pm',12047105],['6:00pm',12046942]])); var options = { title: 'Recent Like Count For Mitt Romney', legend: {position: 'none'} }; var chart = new google.visualization.LineChart(document.getElementById('historic')); chart.draw(data, options); } var headings = [['Time','Likes']]; var likes = []; console.log(headings.concat(likes)); window.setInterval(fadeAway,1000); function init() { drawHistoric(); window.setInterval(fetchLikes,1000); } var start = 0; function fetchLikes() { $.getJSON('https://graph.facebook.com/mittromney?fields=likes',function(data){ console.log(data.likes); if(likes.length==0) { data.likes+=10; start=data.likes; } else { $("#count").text("-"+(start-data.likes)); } likes.push([new Date().getTime(),data.likes]); drawRealtime(); }); } function fadeAway() { var opa = $("#romney").css('opacity'); $("#romney").css('opacity',(opa==0 ? 0 : opa-0.02)); } </script> It's all in the fetchLikes() that use the JSON api of the facebook graph. It's launched through this : window.setInterval(fetchLikes,1000); After the graph API has been loaded.
