Khun Jean, you really do need a hobby mate!

I have the flu, so i sit at home. Little bored, so this idea popped up.

Took me a while though.

Just decided not to go further back in time then 1 jan. That would be way too much.

I think it would be a nice feature, if you can see the top 5 of every forum live.

It will bring out the favorite topics quick, besides the already pinned topics.

Not all popular topics are 5 star rated.

[Khun Jean]

The guy has a point here...!!! Just check out the topics! All VERY VERY RELEVANT!!! VERY VERY.......... (CHECKEM OUT!)

While making it i was a little disturbed by the many negative topics. Especially in the tourist places.

Fortunately there are many topics which where 'informative' and 'positive' too.

It is a way of seeing what people interests are. And with that information you can do a lot.

Especially if you target visitor to your site.

I used only current topics which had a post in the last 2 months.

Indeed check the topics in the list.
