Method and apparatus for indicating historical analysis chronicle information

1. An apparatus, comprising:

a processor;

memory including computer program code, the memory and the computer program code configured to, working with the processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following:

receiving historical analysis chronicle information determined by application of an analysis criteria to sets of information received from one or more information sources over a period of time, wherein receiving historical analysis chronicle information comprises: (i) determining an analysis chronicle based on the application of the analysis criteria to a set of information received from an information source, (ii) determining whether a significant difference exists between the analysis chronicle and a previously stored analysis chronicle by determining that a difference between the analysis chronicle and the previously stored analysis chronicle is significant in an instance in which an activity detection graph representing the analysis chronicle as determined by the analysis criteria has a node that is different than the activity detection graph representing the previously stored analysis chronicle that is within a predefined number of nodes of a root node of the activity detection graphs, and (iii) in an instance in which a significant difference exists between the analysis chronicle and the previously stored analysis chronicle, modifying the previously stored analysis chronicle to generate the historical analysis chronicle information;

in an instance in which a significant difference does not exist between the analysis chronicle and the previously stored analysis chronicle, proceeding without modification of the previously stored analysis chronicle;

determining a graphical representation of at least part of the historical analysis chronicle information; and

causing display of the graphical representation in a manner that provides for a representation of time relative to the historical analysis chronicle information.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein receiving the historical analysis chronicle information further comprises causing storage of at least part of the analysis chronicle.

3. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein causing storage of at least part of the analysis chronicle comprises causing storage of a time associated with the indication that the analysis chronicle changed.

4. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the historical analysis chronicle information comprises at least part of the analysis chronicle that was caused to be stored.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein receiving the historical chronicle information further comprises extracting the historical analysis chronicle information from the analysis chronicle.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the graphical representation comprises an indication of the analysis criteria.

7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the graphical representation relates to a tag cloud.

8. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the tag cloud relates to word usage associated with the historical analysis chronicle information.

9. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the graphical representation relates to a graph.

10. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the graph relates to a count of received sets of information.

11. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the count relates to sets of information received within a period of time.

12. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the graphical representation indicates time on an axis of a graph.

13. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the apparatus further comprises a display, and the causing display of the graphical representation relates to the display.

14. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the apparatus is a mobile terminal.

15. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the analysis chronicle comprises less than an entirety of the set of information.

16. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein determining the graphical representation comprises combining a graphical representation of word usage with a graphical representation of the sets of information received over time.

17. A method, comprising:

receiving historical analysis chronicle information determined by application of an analysis criteria to a set of information received from one or more information sources over a period of time, wherein receiving historical analysis chronicle information comprises: (i) determining an analysis chronicle based on the application of the analysis criteria to a set of information received from an information source, (ii) determining whether a significant difference exists between the analysis chronicle and a previously stored analysis chronicle by determining that a difference between the analysis chronicle and the previously stored analysis chronicle is significant in an instance in which an activity detection graph representing the analysis chronicle as determined by the analysis criteria has a node that is different than the activity detection graph representing the previously stored analysis chronicle that is within a predefined number of nodes of a root node of the activity detection graphs, and (iii) in an instance in which a significant difference exists between the analysis chronicle and the previously stored analysis chronicle, modifying the previously stored analysis chronicle to generate the historical analysis chronicle information;

in an instance in which a significant difference does not exist between the analysis chronicle and the previously stored analysis chronicle, proceeding without modification of the previously stored analysis chronicle;

determining a graphical representation of at least part of the historical analysis chronicle information; and

causing display of the graphical representation in a manner that provides for a representation of time relative to the historical analysis chronicle information.

18. A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with instructions that, when executed by a computer, perform:

receiving historical analysis chronicle information determined by an analysis criteria to a set of information received from one or more information sources over a period of time, wherein receiving historical analysis chronicle information comprises: (i) determining an analysis chronicle based on the application of the analysis criteria to a set of information received from an information source, (ii) determining whether a significant difference exists between the analysis chronicle and a previously stored analysis chronicle by determining that a difference between the analysis chronicle and the previously stored analysis chronicle is significant in an instance in which an activity detection graph representing the analysis chronicle as determined by the analysis criteria has a node that is different than the activity detection graph representing the previously stored analysis chronicle that is within a predefined number of nodes of a root node of the activity detection graphs, and (iii) in an instance in which a significant difference exists between the analysis chronicle and the previously stored analysis chronicle, modifying the previously stored analysis chronicle to generate the historical analysis chronicle information;

in an instance in which a significant difference does not exist between the analysis chronicle and the previously stored analysis chronicle, proceeding without modification of the previously stored analysis chronicle;

determining a graphical representation of at least part of the historical analysis chronicle information; and

causing display of the graphical representation in a manner that provides for a representation of time relative to the historical analysis chronicle information.
