Title: [ANN] bitcointalk top10 hot topic scraper Post by: phelix on September 02, 2011, 02:50:27 PM please check it out: http://bitcoinx.com/charts it is based on data from the last 24h:
note that despite the big images the site is still a relatively small download (~135k). I am aware there is a lot to criticize about this approach but I consider it quite useful for a quick glance of what is going on.

Title: Re: [ANN] bitcointalk top10 hot topic scraper Post by: BitcoinPorn on September 02, 2011, 08:48:30 PM Make it a top 20 and throw some Google Ads on that thing for yourself, you deserve it. Nice job, slick and simple.

I want to leave it with 10 as some people might be afraid it will concentrate threads too much (similiar to objections in this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=25593.0 where I suggested a good post button) for advertising I am still hoping to find some good bitcoin based advertisers. maybe I will give google ads a try in the meantime. Title: Re: [ANN] bitcointalk top10 hot topic scraper Post by: Vladimir on September 03, 2011, 08:25:30 AM Nice!, it seems like a list of posts to make sure you do not post in. Which actually makes it even more valuable.

I expected a comment like this ;)Some of the threads really are very noisy ::) Title: Re: [ANN] bitcointalk top10 hot topic scraper Post by: phelix on September 09, 2011, 09:05:08 AM Nice!, it seems like a list of posts to make sure you do not post in. Which actually makes it even more valuable. you are going up the top10 zlol I did some experiments with more/less newb compensation and users/posts rate but it has only a small impact on the list.

That and anything that gets lockedhttps://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=42640.0 Title: Re: [ANN] bitcointalk top10 hot topic scraper Post by: phelix on September 23, 2011, 09:32:54 PM did some cleaning up. off-topic and non english boards are not in the top 10 any more. neither are the market boards.
locked topics are not immediately banned yet but will take a couple of hours to fall out of hot topics. it may take a couple of hours for these changes to fully propagate through the list. Title: Re: [ANN] bitcointalk top10 hot topic scraper Post by: phelix on October 19, 2011, 09:41:29 PM scraper was frozen for the last 19 hours or so because of a weird char encoding problem. should be fixed.
are we done with "alternate cryptocurrencies", should I take them out? maybe not quite yet. if I find the time I might give them their separate 3-5 topics... |
