updated arab revolt trends with location detection

IMPORTANT: To really update the application, give it a few reloads in the browser until you see a map below the keywords and the trending graph.

I have updated our trend detection for the arabic world in two ways:

1. I have separated libya and iran into their own trackers.
2. The trends now also contain retweet information.
3. An experimental features shows an approximate coordinate or what is being talked about in the tweet

More to come, the data stream already transmits mention trends, retweet trends, hashtag trends and link trends in addition to what is already there. I just did not have enough time to put it into the interface.

You can now select the tracker in the menu top right:

Enjoy!
