Forty Days of Author Searches Visualized

We've been looking at the search logs, and just put up a visual display of the 300 most frequent author searches in the past 40 days. Cleaning up the data was very instructive: certain names are frequently misspelled, other names always entered with last name only... And surprises: who is this Baglio guy? Did we know how many people are hoping to find Sara Douglass and Gregg Braden?

It displays like this (and making it was the most fun we've had in weeks); go take a look.
