vis.js – a visual interaction system
Vis.js is a dynamic, browser based visualization library. The library is designed to be easy to use, to handle large amounts of dynamic data, and to enable manipulation of and interaction with the data. The library consists of the components DataSet, Timeline, and Graph.
The vis.js library is developed by Almende B.V, as part of CHAP. Vis.js runs fine on Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari, IE9+, and most mobile browsers (with full touch support).

X-axis shows a few last weeks of 2007 as well as a couple of weeks of 2008. Y-axis shows the number of visits this blog had for each of those weeks. A home-made red marker with a word “here” tries to bring your attention to the celebration of Christmas and New Year represented on this graph.
As much as it was expected, that was quite a dive I must say. Reasons? I’d say there are only two:
Gladly, things are rushing back to normal.
