Title: Who will create the first block explorer?
Post by: bytemaster on July 23, 2014, 01:21:37 pm
This spot is up for grabs for someone to claim and earn ad revenue....  sure would be nice to have a website that displayed all of the current delegates, their performance, and latency for those who don't keep the client open 24-7.

kind of embarrassed to not know the answer to this but...

will brain wallets be possible, or is that a no go because of TITAN?

Brain wallets are already implemented for advanced users ;)

I'm actually focused more on delegates statistics - block explorer I will do last, since there is one already in the client. So this is good because we probably won't overlap (yet).

OK. Well I'm still some way off yet. Coding is something I don't get much time for. So as and when really. But I'll try and keep it as basic as I can, and not tread on your toes!

Competition is a very healthy thing, I welcome it. But this early on, it's good to cover as much ground as possible. Eventually we will overlap, and that's fine, that's how we get better.

I started out intending to make primarily a delegates listing with info on delegates, but ended up working on a simple block explorer as well. It's currently up and running, as far as I know it's the only site with the following features:

- Live delegates list with reliability info among other things
- Live block stream
- Block explorer: investigate number of transactions, transaction sizes and votes per transaction

Check it out and throw me a vote pls if you like it!

Great site.... some recommendations:
1) Always group the robot and delegate name as close together visually as possible
2) When you ask for votes for your delegate (and the other delegates there) you should use the btsx: URLs     https://github.com/BitShares/bitshares_toolkit/wiki/XTS-URLs

Thanks!

I put the robots in a column next to the names, I tried putting them with the name but it needs some work to make it look ok so I prefered keeping the columns apart for now.

I didn't know about the URL scheme, that's awesome, I put them in as well, hope I got it right.
