Google Trends - A bigger picture

I made this graph by aggregating data from Google Trends for about 150 domains, including the Alexa Top 100.

 

There is an interactive version, which uses this same data, here:

 

www.coverpop.com/bigpicture/

 

The lines are colored according to the slope - red when going up, and blue when going down.

 

The graph is logarithmic, so that low traffic websites can be shown together with high traffic ones.

 

The line at the top is yahoo.com. Google does not provide traffic data for it's own websites, such as google, youtube and orkut.

 

The extra bumpy line in the top section is Mozilla.com, whose traffic gets big spikes when there are new releases of Firefox.

 

The section near the middle, where all the lines turn blue, appears to be the Christmas holiday.--
