Wikipedia entry on web crawling / spidering is here.

Not sure if Nick has just downloaded it locally, or what - I considered seeing if there was some way that I could import the thread into a MySQL database on my laptop so that I could do some analysis / geek work with it.

But I never got round to it.

century

can we class those as a full house with 6 cards ???

or is that a subject for Ask Brillo Pad in general

Basically, trawling the website, taking a copy of all the connecting pages. The homepage would be the centre of the web and then everything that links to the homepage is the first "ring" of the web. Everything that then links to the first layer of links becomes the next "ring" and so forth.

It means that Nick has a copy of TPD somewhere, and so we can start to have some meaningful statistics measured easily

So - starter for 10:

- Top ten posters in a single day (e.g. TF posted 210 posts in a day once; BP posted 199 posts etc.)

- Quickest gap between 000s

- Most concurrent posts with the same timestamp (when was it, and was there a significant post looming at the time)

I have been thinking all the avove for a while!

And I expect an interface so I can just type "What is the Quickest gap between 000s?" - I dont want to do any sql or any rubbish like that!

I know NF is up to it...

Not sure that you can just type that and it will work

A list of frequently asked statistics would be good to implement, plus maybe just a nice query only front end to run your own? I like geeky things like this
