A colleague pointed me to The visual history of Reddit's source which was generated using Gource.

So I ran the program over the boards.ie git repository. Here it is for your viewing pleasure:

Never let it be said that Boards.ie was ever in a state of non-development. If anything the video is yet another demonstration of the effect you and Ross had on the site. It was like a game of space invaders in there from mid 2009 onwards, Ross was a bit lonely before that

Haha, it looks like I went into shock shortly after Conor arrived; he banged into a bunch of experimental modutils stuff and I just sorta poked at the CSS/JS and watched

You need to add the music from tron to it.

Site didn't just disappear when hacked.

If you check around 21st - 22nd of January 2010 you'll see it in action.

I have no idea what's going on there but it sure is purty

In a nutshell it is a video representation of data from our logs. The logs keep a record of who edited files and when they were edited. So you can see how boards has grown over the last few years
