good site for sample data

[fris]

if anyone needs sample data, i came across this site, they give you up to 50,000 records for free in csv,txt,sql formats, good for testing purposes.

With 27 languages and 22 countries, the Fake Name Generator is the most advanced name generator on the internet. Generate names, addresses, social security numbers, credit card numbers, occupations, UPS tracking numbers, and more absolutely free.

also if you are looking for a decent csv class to parse csv files, i came across this one the other day, you can specify how many records to parse, etc. so you dont have to load the whole 15meg+ file.

$csv = new parseCSV();
$csv->auto('data.csv');
$csv->limit = 3;
print_r($csv->data);

you can custom order 1million records if you really need them, for most projects i juse use a couple thousand so the site is populated for user demos.
