For my data mining project this semester at school, I was hoping to work on something besides the UCI repository dataset. Yelp seems a pretty good option, but would like to know if there are any more such options available.

#2Is there a specific type of data or industry you're interested in? There's a ton of government data floating around, a lot of which is located at http://data.gov/
Some other sites to look into: kaggle.com, http://www.healthmetricsandevaluation.org/ghdx, factual.com, infochimps.com
There's always the classic Netflix recommendation challenge from a few years ago too

I'm inclined towards tv sitcoms/music data, but thanks for the links.

Too bad Pandora hasn't done a data dump.
What about piggy backing off Wikipedia (which you ca download) or IMDB for seeing connections

#5If you want music data, I believe Last.fm's API can deliver some useful info to you.
What is the project concerning?

Nothing concrete I've in my head, it's for my school data mining course.
