    The idea of course is a rip-off of Digg Spy, but it's cool, so... {shrug}

    It works with Firefox and Safari, but it doesn't work with Internet Explorer currently (sorry).

    I have a few minor things I want to add to it still, but I'm tired, and I'm going to bed now. So I figure you guys can play with it while I sleep.

    Really cool...This is perfect for those of us that work at the same time. Now I can put this in the corner of the flatscreen up on the wall and just cherry pick the threads that interest me.

    No more clicking New Posts every 5 minutes. :D

    I put it up there so I could watch the news and stuff while I was working but I always end up watching Judge Judy

    At least I know living together is bad financially and if 4 women rent an apt together, one of them is always going to move in one of their boyfriends :rolleyes:

    Nice. One suggestion, add a little image next to the text link that we can click if we want to open the thread in a new window.

    Awesome Feature, may be you can explain more to people who do not know more about this feature or may be new to digg as well.

    Cheers,

    I had it fading faster before (2 seconds instead of 4), but it was too fast... was hard to click on stuff if you wanted to.

    Awesome - you'd think someone with degrees in History and English could come up with a better term, but that's honestly the first word that came out when I looked at this; kudos.

    Okay, to be honest, the first thing I thought was, "so what, it's not working," but then I reread Shawn's post and decided it would be best for this blonde to first reattempt to view it in Firefox, then came "Wow" and "Awesome" :D

    Personally, I could do withouth the "What" column, but a "Where" (which category, subforum) replacement would be more informative.

    As far as the open in new window, I personally like the way it is; I can always "shift+click" if I want to launch in a new browser.

    Thoughts about making this page take up less real estate? Maybe a sizable popup?
