1300 magic reviews are listed in the directory

At least that’s what the database tells me.

Anyways, I was able to figure out a neat programming trick that’s probably too unsophisticated for Google’s crawling algorithm, but it worked well enough for me, and because of it I managed to get My Lovely Assistant’s DVD, book, and trick reviews indexed. That, combined with what I’ve gotten off Online Visions, iTricks, and Ye Olde Magick Blogge, that comes out to roughly 1300 reviews. Needless to say, My Lovely Assistant counts for the majority of those (almost 75%), and the olde blogge has just a wee bit. I’ve got a bit more parsing to do of Online Visions’s stuff, and I’m working through The Magic Woods’s Reviews, and hopefully at the end of that I’ll be up to 1500, which is a nice round number.

I’m pretty stoked about that. So much so that I’m thinking about making an announcement over at the Green Place and seeing how well the server would hold up under the load. It’s still not perfect, there’s no search engine and I’ve got a kink in the database that lists things “iKnow” at the end of the section, but I think it’s still pretty good.

In any case, if you’re interested in reading any of them, head on over to the main page and click on the reviews links, (or else skip that step and just go here.
