ironkeith, this most likely is a HN effect (luckily? :)
The webapp has been developed with performance in mind, however I've already noticed some glitches to fix.
- mitjak 17y agoWell done Oleg but where's the Russian language on the side? =) I don't know if it's in the works or what, because wordoid just generated veter.com for me (which is still available). Would definitely be fun.
- op 17y agoI plan to add more languages (including Russian) when all the critical issues are settled.
- alanthonyc 17y agoI like this site very much! However, I'd consider it an advantage for Russian speakers to NOT have Russian on the list. As a speaker of another language also not on the list, I wouldn't want any automated competition on coming up with words with that basis. (My other language has been a gold mine for me. ;) )
- op 17y agoMore on this: The website received about 3500 visitors during 12 hours after I posted this review request here on HN. Thank you guys! Thanks HN! It has been way more than I expected! There's a bottleneck somewhere in the algorithm that creates wordoids. That's why wordoid.com is irresponsive sometimes. The webserver and the database seem to run smoothly.
- gills 17y agoDo you mean that when I click "go", the wordoid-generating algorithm is kicked off during the request cycle? Have you considered generating the wordoids asynchronously (offline) and keeping an index of them and their metadata?
