Show HN: HackerNews as default tab (chrome extension)

I really liked the idea. So I wanted to make a generic website out of it you could just set as default URL for new tabs, for example in firefox.

Then I realized how much I hate and suck at CSS. So I'll just leave this here, should anyone want to pick up the mess I hacked together.

preview: http://dumbinter.net/hn.html (really lacks some css)

code: https://gist.github.com/lawl/9842357

intended to be run as cronjob and just spit the generated html into a file. I guess you could also do it completely client side with the JSONP API. But I like my sites static. Less clicks in NoScript.

By the way I'm not in any way affiliated with wimg.ca, the just seemed to do the job.

Would you mind tossing it up on a repo? Or just mentioning what's in the jq file? Trying to reproduce to style it up a bit. Thanks!

Sorry, should have mentioned that.

It's a commandline JSON parser.
