Currently most of the pointers linger near zero, and a couple of more active projects hang consistently around middle-ground values, with occasional spikes that send them over the limit. Increasing the limit would create some room for these spikes, but would glue the less active projects even more to the zeroth position; decreasing the limit would make the fluctiations of the small projects more visible, at the expense making off-the-scale events unacceptably frequent for the larger projects.\r\n\r\nA log scale would fix both issues neatly. Unfortunately, Google Charts doesn't support a log scale for the gauge chart type, but I found a web chart library, called [HighCharts](http://www.highcharts.com/), [that does](http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#yAxis.type). It's free for non-commercial use, so we should be fine using it. Here's how it would look: http://jsfiddle.net/8LB8V/. What do you say, @edsu?"}}
