I agree that the graphs are cool, and I enjoyed looking at them when I
saw them last week.  However, notice that none of the graphs have any
hard numbers associated with them.  There's never any legend on the
vertical axis!  Kinda odd -- I guess they somehow don't want to give out
that much information?

Very interesting article in this month's Wired on Google:
