Farewell HNTrends
- ronnier 16y agoIf anybody is interested, I have the HN database. I'm going to release it soon at http://api.ihackernews.com http://api.ihackernews.com. I'm (along with another HN user) trying to figure out the best way to distribute it, as I don't have the bandwidth I plan to release incremental updates (nightly/weekly?). Using this data, others can build tools such as HNTrends without the need to scrape HN. *The dataset includes IDs, Posts, Comments, AskHN, Points, Posted By, Date, and so on. I do not have a list of usernames outside of the 'PostedBy'.
