You click on the peaks to see what was driving the concept you're researching at any point in time. Of course it's usually some event - an election, a disaster, etc. (You could probably click on the troughs and find them instructive, though how is not so obvious.) As search becomes more sophisticated I could see how such a chart could measure 'positive' and 'negative' memes. This requires algorithms capable of parsing such concepts, but some crude version of same is probably not that far off. I tried out their charting feature - it’s a great concept for aiding search.
