A lot of people roll their own popurls.com site. I wrote one, too, to teach myself the Apache Wicket framework. This one is for web developers. http://devfunnel.com.

I was going to add the ability to "follow" it on twitter, but I've run out of steam, and no one seems very interested in it. I've moved onto other projects. :)

That's really pretty cool. However, it seems like it would be hard to hold the attention of people who don't like to scroll down.

I guess that's one of my favorite things about HN. Loads fast and only need to scroll on the most commented articles.

Yeah, that's why I added the collapsible arrow thingies at the left-hand side, to hide specific languages. I was going to eventually persist their open/closed state w/ cookies. I might still do it, but it's hard to get the motivation to work on it when I get fewer than five page hits a day. :/
