Show HN: From real Jeopardy data, a minimalistic site with random questions
- mickle00 12y agoSpun this up in less than an hour. Source of all the data: http://www.reddit.com/r/datasets/comments/1uyd0t/200000_jeopardy_questions_in_a_json_file/ http://www.reddit.com/r/datasets/comments/1uyd0t/200000_jeop... --Heroku Postgres backend, exposed via JSON dataclip to randomly select 1000 rows. --Twitter Bootstrap Framework --Github Pages for hosting Would like to add the ability to 'stay on a category', work on questions with embedded media, and think of a way to track correct / seen questions, but for now this has been a fun site to kill some time with friends.

- andrewrice 12y agoThis is pretty amazing; thanks for sharing! Just an idea--it would be neat if the questions were grouped into categories, as you suggested, and then organized onto the actual game board.
- mickle00 12y agoThanks! Also, check out http://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=3377 http://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=3377 for that style. That's where this actual data dump came from. I just wanted something that was quick and easy, for when I'm on the bus, or have 2 minutes to kill and a knack for trivia!
