Another statistical analysis of the NYT wedding section, looking at the occurrence frequency of certain characteristics in the NYT wedding announcements relative to their occurrence in the general population: <a href="http://www.theatlanticwire.com/entertainment/2011/12/odds-getting-new-york-times-wedding-section/45440" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.theatlanticwire.com&#x2F;entertainment&#x2F;2011&#x2F;12&#x2F;odds-ge...</a>.<p>You can clearly see the recent tech boom by searching &quot;Google,&quot; &quot;Facebook,&quot; &quot;Twitter,&quot; and &quot;Apple&quot; <a href="http://www.weddingcrunchers.com/?q=facebook%2C%20google%2C%20twitter%2C%20apple&amp;s=1" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.weddingcrunchers.com&#x2F;?q=facebook%2C%20google%2C%2...</a>.<p>The key takeaway here is Google:<p>Google has raced ahead of establishment NY law firms: <a href="http://www.weddingcrunchers.com/?q=wachtell%2C%20cravath%2C%20cromwell%2C%20wardwell%2C%20skadden%2C%20google&amp;s=1" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.weddingcrunchers.com&#x2F;?q=wachtell%2C%20cravath%2C%...</a>.<p>Google has also recently overtaken top investment banks: <a href="http://www.weddingcrunchers.com/?q=goldman%20sachs%2C%20morgan%20stanley%2C%20%20ubs%2C%20barclays%2C%20google&amp;s=1" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.weddingcrunchers.com&#x2F;?q=goldman%20sachs%2C%20morg...</a><p>Ditto for consulting: <a href="http://www.weddingcrunchers.com/?q=mckinsey%2C%20boston%20consulting%2C%20bain%2C%20google&amp;s=1" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.weddingcrunchers.com&#x2F;?q=mckinsey%2C%20boston%20co...</a>.<p>When do you think Google will start hosting a debutante ball in Chelsea?

Given how horizontally expansive RapGenius is trying to be (this is the first time I&#x27;ve seen NewsGenius, but I&#x27;m familiar with PoetryGenius et al -- there&#x27;s an annotated <i>Iliad</i> that&#x27;s pretty cool), I&#x27;m wondering if they&#x27;d be better off as a layer or a plugin as opposed to a stand-alone site. I&#x27;m much less tempted to visit the site for each individual story that pops up than I would be to peruse the annotations as I browse normally.<p>Either way -- stuff like this is a delight to read.

&quot;This makes it possible to rigorously test our intuitions about trends like.&quot;<p>let me fix that for you<p>&quot;This makes it possible to put numbers on our preconceived notions and play around with them.&quot;<p>It may be entertaining, but rigorous? I don&#x27;t think so.

Not to take an entertaining post too seriously, but when your graph scale ranges from 0 - 0.02% the statistical significance is dubious.

Are all wedding announcements posted, or does The Times have an editorial role in which announcements are printed?

I am very surprised by the prevalence of &quot;<i>was</i> graduated from&quot;. I have only rarely heard that in &#x27;real life&#x27;, is the NYT&#x27;s style guide enforcing this usage?

What they should do is find the divorce stats and throw that in the mix.

Really interesting - how did you guys downloaded the 60K articles (is there an API i do not know about)? Also - what graphing lib are you using (I see it is not d3)?

I was expecting something more interesting, but that&#x27;s probably because I like N-gram analysis, among other things.<p>This is how we do it (examples below are not weddings, but random topics):<p><a href="http://blogdotitrendcorporationdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/2013-04-18_15-52-08.png" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;blogdotitrendcorporationdotcom.files.wordpress.com&#x2F;20...</a><p><a href="http://blog.itrendcorporation.com/2013/04/10/social-media-on-microsofts-scroogled-ads-attacking-androids-data-sharing/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.itrendcorporation.com&#x2F;2013&#x2F;04&#x2F;10&#x2F;social-media-on...</a>

How were they able to collect all the Wedding announcements. Doens&#x27;t NYT limit the number of articles or what portions of text they can retrieve?

This is awesome -- it&#x27;s kind of like the older Priceonomics blogs which used quantitive analysis to uncover hidden facts in plain sight.

Was this designed specifically for Katie Baker (she writes summaries of the NYT Wedding Section for Grantland)?

Is it just me or does anyone else dislike reading articles like this with dark background and light text?

Whoever uses two similar shades of blue in a chart should be beaten with a stick until they learn more colors.
