Objections
Dataset pages do not show number of rows or observations up front
From 2 comments
It would be nice to have some estimate of the data size (e.g. number of rows).

Empty datasets can be registered

Good datasets source .. one point - you can register an empty data set . You might want to fix that.. rest all looks great .. good job

Data preview feature in the browser
From 1 comment
Thanks! Would you also be interested in having a 'data preview' feature, where you'd see a tiny part of the data in the browser?

Awhile ago I put together a list of big (100,000+ rows) and public datasets...not all of them are ideal for machine learning applications but you'll probably find a few worth…
