an imdb db or any movie star db would be really good.
Those of you who want a Yelp scraper (honestly I'm kind of interested in this too)...how do you think I should set it up?
I'm thinking you give it your query (or queries) and it outputs a .csv. For every attribute it finds, it makes a new column for that attribute and fills it in whenever it can. That way you can sort by attributes, etc. It would also grab the Yelp business id (i.e. the slug from the URL of a business's page) and save a bunch of text files, each one named for a specific business, containing the reviews.
Thoughts?
Oh also does anyone know if I am going to hit any kind of query or page limit? I know the API has one built in but I don't know if their actual site checks.
I also wrote a perl script that gets the attributes as well as the reviews (in a separate text file). I keep getting blocked by yelp though. Anyone has experience with proxies to get around that? any recommendations?
made a chunk of change off that college db you had out a couple years ago.

lyrics would be good
athlete stats databases would be good too...
Random time limits, randomise the order you hit the URLs, proxies are a good idea, realistic referrers never hurt.
Also don't run 30,000 hits at once in an hour. My IP is banned haha
Oh, I should have added, with European courses too!
