The project aims to create a website from which users can view the trends in online worlds when it comes to which items people wear. This will be accomplished by statistic sampling of various profiles (which amongst other contains lists of item's currently worn) that people publish on the Internet.
The site could for instance be used to find out which items that are popular amongst a certain level range in a specified class in a game. It could also be used to see how rare the items one is wearing are. Or to see typical upgrade chains (which items people switch to after wearing item x for time y).
The project is a chance for me to apply some statistical knowledge. As a bonus I'm also going to take the opportunity to learn the ruby on rails framework and use it in this project.
