As inspired by another internal project that will hopefully be much
better than this one, here is a simple acre app which simply does the
google "Hot Triends" searches on freebase, and then shows you the types:
http://zeitgeist.alecf.user.dev.freebaseapps.com/
Google updates their feeds hourly, and these searches are updated in
realtime, so assuming a decent amount of activity, we should see this
page change moment to moment....
so if you're ever thinking to yourself "I've got 5 minutes to spare,
what random crap can I add to freebase?" this is the page for you :)
In particular, you can:
- type untyped topics (I want someone to figure out how to type
"Aquamarine")
- flag topics for deletion (such as "House and Senate career of John
McCain, until 2000")
- flag duplicate topics (hmm... 4 untyped "Washington Nationals"
topics, that's not right!)
- add topics that should be there, but aren't ("sakai rutgers" anyone?)
Have fun...
