new bitcoin website

[earney]

The past week or so, I've been working on a new website (http://www.bitcoinmania.com) which generates charts that show the number of transactions, BTC Spent, coins mined, and difficulty history.  This was inspired by a post on this forum asking for the number of non mined transactions.  I hope you will check out the site.  At the bottom is a link to a suggestion page that lists some of the upgrades I'd like to make, along with an email address that suggestions can be sent to..

Thanks!

Great website! Seems to be a bit unstable though... I also couldn't find your website on first try.

[earney]

thanks..  I'll look into the stability issues..

Ya going to try to make money off of this project?

That's pretty cool. I'd suggest moving it off your home server to a dedicated host. You can buy the hosting with Bitcoins.

Could you maybe rescale the graphs to show the last 6 months or so with the Y axis capped so huge spikes don't hide the regular trends?

Got error first time trying, worked after refresh.

I like the site. Suggestion: Log scale for the difficulty chart.

Hmm, I got this exact same behaviour too. I also get this _every_ time when going to the betpoker site?

Same for me.

Not really, I figure I probably won't make much money.  If people want to donate some bitcoins, that would be great.  If not, that is okay too.

I'm also mining with the same machine, so I've bumped the number of threads down.   I'll see if that helps the 404 errors that are being generated..

I want to thank everyone for the suggestions.   I'll look into making those ASAP.

Looks good.  A couple of recommendations for you to consider:  Change the time scale on the upper difficulty graph to 90 days since it doesn't change that often.  On the bottom graph, you might consider using a log scale on the y (difficulty) axis.

Thanks for the suggestions!

most of the charts allow you to zoom and pan if you want to look at a certain time frame..  In most cases, I only included 2010 and beyond since not much activity occurred in 2009.

The difficulty graph will be useful to me as I have been plotting it manually.  I'm not sure the statistics are meaningful for trending data.  I sent you a donation.

Thanks I appreciate the donation..
I figured some of this information would be useful for bitcoin developers.

If people have ideas of things they would like to have graphed, I can look into adding these.   Most of the work has already been done to collect and store the data, so querying it shouldn't be too difficult in most cases.

How often are you updating the difficulty factor?  We have a new difficulty as of yesterday, but your charts don't reflect it.
