10 years of boards.ie data has been released and they’re running a competition for people to come up with the most interesting ways of using the data.

Suggestions:
Plot the emergence of the phrase ‘I’m not racist but‘ over time. Or a simple count of the number of times your ma has been said on the site. (Google’s result of 2,720 seems low.) Something similar to the stats created based off of 5 years of Boing Boing data would be good.
