a set of time-based graphs that convey thousands of thumbnails from YouTube movies for specific tags, such as 'joke', 'cat' or 'wedding'. the thumbnails create a kind of "heat signature" which shows the increase in activity in YouTube in the last few months. vertically, the thumbnails are positioned by the hour of the day they were uploaded, & horizontally by the day of the year.

Ah that's so cool. I'm actually surprised to see the bulk of them uploaded around noon. Maybe I just have this warped view that YouTube mainly consists of bored teenagers with nothing to do at like midnight, so they hang out at YouTube.
What do I know?!?!
Maybe they ARE doing it at midnight, and YouTube simply runs in a timezone 12 hours away.. :)
