everything in its right place

After 8 grueling hours of work, the site hardware has been upgraded yet again.
I launched the new master database server last night which has an extraordinary amount of power and should take us well into the future and allow for some awesome new features.
I also tweaked the content server a lot and last night we peaked out at 736mbps.
Read more for technical details.
The new master database server has the following specs:
Dual AMD Opteron 280 (dual core 2.4ghz w/2mb cache)
8GB ECC DDR Ram
2x36GB 15k RPM Ultra 320 SCSI disks in a RAID 1 setup
This server will take over as the master and all replication slaves will now connect to this.
The old DB server:
Dual AMD Opteron 246 (2 Ghz)
4GB ECC DDR Ram
2x74gb 10k RPM drives (with no RAID!)
This server now is the primary replication slave and the server which runs the site list and search.
Now that we have an excess of database power I'm looking for some suggestions as to what data we can pull from the database to provide some new and interesting content. If you have some good ideas of how to pull good sites out of a massive pile of all the data we collect, hit me up with a private message.
Additionally, the designer who made the "star" logo is working on a new layout for the site, I should get some screenshots in the middle of July. Good things are on the horizon.
Cheers!

Yeah, right now it would be really tough for a newly created ytmnd to break into u&c. I do think the threshold needs to be incresed above 250, but it should be done incrementally, like maybe increse it by ten views each day for a few weeks. That'll prevent u&c from being flooded with too much old stuff.
'Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling And every time we kiss, I swear I could fly Can't you feel my heart beat fast, want this to last, Need you by my side 'Cause every time we touch, I feel the static, And every time we kiss, I reach for the sky, Can't you hear my heart beat so I can't let you go, Want you in my life.
