| Some more background on what this is and why I built it here:

| As I mention in the blog post this is hosted on the lowest tier
| DO droplet so will probably fall over soon.

| Can't do that, this will have to do.

| As mentioned briefly on the blog I didn't want to spend any
| money on this (currently not employed and living off savings)
| so it's sitting on the droplet also running the blog, I assume
| only 1 thing can run off 443? If that's the case I won't be
| looking to enable ssl for this, apologies.

| I can't help, I have no knowledge of these things. Sorry 8-(

| Ah, OK, sorry to hear it doesn't work. It's strange, it
| shouldn't be attempting to use https (though for security
| reasons it should so I assume Ive been testing against
| outdated browsers). Sorry.

| Also was trying to compare multiple terms.

| Thanks, yeah I agree, the percent view smooths this out a bit

| is 'correct' but not particularly useful.
