# I could really do with
some message board URL's posted on the embedex
so I can get some proper stats generating.

For those who had better things to do over the weekend,
the embedex is kinda like the blogdex but for message boards...

# It's kinda like a public beta
At the moment it only trawls 2 links deep - this will in the future vary from site to site.

The scoring system is really simple at the moment as well. I need some archived data
before I can do proper stats & scoring.

At the moment u get a "quick hit" of current links. Later it will help judge longer term
popularity etc.

If anyone thinks of anything else it should do (except making tea) let me know...

# er... I think you need to define the link depth
on a case by case basis. I.e. popbitch should only be one link deep.

"At the moment it only trawls 2 links deep - this will in the future vary from site to site. "

It does some things with internal links too, so although it scans internal links for
more URLs, it doesn't list them in results, thus avoiding 3.5 billion links to view_profile.php etc...
