This website is here to serve as a quick and up to date reference on how much attention internet blogs are giving individual presidential candidates. The statistical information on this website is presented in the form of bar graphs provided by technorati.com. The horizontal axis of each graph shows dates and the vertical axis shows the daily number of blog posts containing each candidate's name (note: candidates names are searched for in quotation marks "first+last"). The graphs are categorized by party and you then have the option of how many days worth of data you want to look at. Graphs that cover a short duration are good for analyzing the impact of daily events, while longer term graphs are good for spotting trends.
