LJ Fight

I've launched a new LiveJournal toy at http://www.onethingwell.com/. Remember GoogleFight? It's like that but with LJ interests and a nifty random feature.

Hope you like it!

Please let me know what you think.

Great! Challenger has two l's though. CHALLENGER. No biggy...

bah! The site is so great, who is looking. I like looking for disparate interests that are really CLOSE. I am glad someone did this.

"uhh" vs. "uh huh"
"al gore" vs. "dubya"

Re: Shameless, yet on-topic promotion: onethingwell February 13 2006, 22:26:19 UTC

Promotion, shameless and otherwise, is what it's all about.

Cool community! I've had a series of "In a fair fight: A or B" polls in my journal. I'll have to join up! (or rather, my non-onethingwell alter ego will)

Re: Fantastic oh_really_now February 13 2006, 21:16:23 UTC

I wanted to see if the number was accurate, and LJ lists only 475 members with 'sex' listed as an interest. So I checked 'radiohead' and it's like 455 members. What's up with that?

Re: Fantastic wechsler February 13 2006, 21:21:46 UTC

Search results, if that's how you looked it up, are limited to around 4-500 results (I think).

Actual numbers are available through LJ's raw stats interface; see also: http://ljtoys.infinitepenguins.net/ljtopints/

Re: Fantastic oh_really_now February 13 2006, 21:26:51 UTC

Thanks for that fact! I could have sworn, back in the day, it listed everyone, or at least the number of members who had an interest listed.

Thanks! Great idea! I'll put that second on my list...right after spelling CHALLENGER correctly. :-)

1. Spelling CHALLENGER correctly.
2. Ability to copy and paste code into LJ.

I've made the changes that y'all suggested:

1. Can you spell CHALLENGER correctly? ...Check!
2. I'd like to copy the HTML to paste into LJ...Check!
3. I'd like to copy a URL that links directly to my fight...Check!
4. If a Random fight gives me a interest I don't understand, can you give me a link to look it up? ...Check! You can now search both Google and Amazon.

Check it out!

It would be nice if you used GET instead of POST so that we could bookmark results as a URL.

onethingwell February 13 2006, 23:23:16 UTC

Great idea, I'll put that next in the list

1. Spelling CHALLENGER correctly.
2. Ability to copy and paste code into LJ.
3. Use GET.
