what is in my head is something similar to visualizations we see around web. something along the lines of marumishi's visualizations, one that would give insight about what we haven't seen in here. let's brainstorm, what kind of data do we have, we have ids, number of posts according to per person, but we cannot list the whole list of people, basically it is more based on threads than any other thing. what could we build with it, what does this reveal we don't see.

is an example I like.. I was thinking age of people but then I thought people could lie about it, so it must be something that is already there.what would you like to see?

You're going to explain that one better....

it could be something more close to realtime as a display. a some kind of crontab that regularly checks for new posts and visualize it for example. I am sure boss would be pissed of if we make the traffic higher with those crontab jobs, so we should also keep it limited. in those boundaries. I have been always curious about ages of people in here, also daily post numbers of people to see who is in action, maybe longevity of text is another qttribute. even could build a bot that randomly quotes from different posts. any ideas?

I am just spreading, so bear with me.
Basically I am looking for different ways of display of pvn conversations. We are geeking, talking fighting here everyday, this is our playground, and I want to dig this data. another idea: mark certain words as good and bad and then run a character analysis test according to that and display this info. maybe? am I making sense here?

i think the pvn 's magic is geographically based.

i like the idea of posting frequency, to see who posts the most - geographic data would be cool too. love to see what you come up with.
- ozhanlion0
ok lemme play with it..
- jpea0
post count would be cool... just to see who doesn't work ;)

actually this is going to be easier than I thought,I have found a workaround not to crawl through the whole list of topics, I am going to only check the first 30 one(the first 30 ones we see here) and then compare them to my hashtable and see if they match or not, and add according to the table blabla. I hope I am not missing anything here. only drawback is I need to hammer the server max 30 times every time I want to refresh the names, in order to find howmany times one posted etc. I am thinking to set this interval to 2 mins.
this is all for to display how many post have been made by individuals for that topic. this is only the beginning.
would it create a bottleneck for the server? hopefully not.
