Sparklines are small, word sized graphs that can be interspersed with text to provide context and enhance communication. There are implementations in many languages and even some web services that will generate them on the fly. I was looking for a Haskell solution and finding none, wrote my own.

On a side note, while writing my blog entry I decided to generate a sparkline for the number of uploads to hackage. If it's any indication, the Haskell community is growing by leaps and bounds.

Lovely work! Is there a darcs repository available for the source? (Or would you like to host it on hackage?) Also, how did you generate the month-by-month data for hackage uploads? -- Don
