"Hmm. I wonder what the graph would look like if I added 'Reddit' as a third term . . . Oh."

Edit: Wow. To really get a good sense of scale on things, add these terms in order. "Something Awful" followed by "Fark" followed by "Reddit." Reddit seems huge. Right? Check this out. Get rid of "Snapzu" and make "Facebook" your fifth term. HOLY SHIT.

It's like one of those astronomical scales. Hubski is a moon, Reddit is a solar system, Facebook is a Galaxy.

WOW. That is absolutely huge! I added Voat and the contrast to Hubski and Snapzu was already astounding. Then I added Reddit and was absolutely blown away by the difference between Voat and Reddit (all the talk about mass-migration and exodus made me think Voat gained a lot more). Facebook is just insane.
