# Code Idea: 'Is this a well used domain name?'
1. Take a dictionary file from net
2. Export to database
3. Get random word
4. Display 2 HTML frames
5. 1 frame has 'This is MONKEY.com - is this a well used domain name? YES, PASS, NO' (make sure buttons are ALWAYS in same place)
6. 2nd frame has www.monkey.com in it.
7. Clicking yes will vote +1 on the site
8. clicking yes or no will add +1 to the site views
9. clicking PASS will add nothing to the data.
10. The 1st frame should also list the 10 last rated sites with the percentages.

# A bit sensible tho.....
Checked the embedex of late ?
Got daily stats in place now.

I can start doing some proper analysis & scoring soon...

# bit sensible?
maybe. Just trying to think of ideas based upon my behavor. I.e. I used to like playing the random word URL and wondering if we could add something extra to it.

# you could make it
monkey.com
versus a made up page of random quotes and images pulled off google featuring that search term - if that makes sense.

# Oh. And I look forward to the proper stats
having stuff going up and down is what's gonna make it. Er... and a way of filtering out old stuff. Have you looked into that?

# I've got some ideas
I have an "updated since last read" checksum based on length of returned page & some other gubbins.

I need a few days data in place so I can look at scoring...

And a new PC. You may have noticed a decrease in performance :(
