Word frequency drawing
I have a bunch of monthly journal entries, and I wanted to see what words were getting used when. Here is a js/canvas renderer that draws dots for the word usages over time. The counts are not exact because I normalized hits by the length of each journal entry, but then I still used discrete dots for the rendering. You think you're looking at specific occurrences, but actually 3 occurrences in a 30-word entry will make the same number of dots as 9 occurrences in a 90-word entry.
