Add a TimePlot graphic #4

Torget:
Can we add a TimePlot graphic?  (http://www.simile-widgets.org/timeplot/).  
Here's what I am thinking--the interactive timeline is great, but makes it a 
bit hard to get a sense of concentration over time.  Better, perhaps, would be 
to supplement that with a TimePlot which would show the number of results over 
time.  So what we would have would be a timeplot AND the interactive timeline, 
and the user could simply toggle between the two with tabs at the top of that 
box.  My model for this, which will show you a bit of what I am thinking, is 
what we developed for the History Engine.  Go to 
http://historyengine.richmond.edu/search/basic and search for "cotton" and 
you'll get a results page with a timeplot at the top and the option to tab to 
another view--where we would have the timeline for the Austin stuff.  Does that 
make sense?

TimePlot could also be useful for plotting the changes in polarity over time, 
once we have sentiment analysis working.
