Show HN: Hacker News in Real Time

from the show-hn dept.

Over the past day or so I've been working on a small project called HNLive. Essentially it is just an alternative interface to HN that updates in real time. I thought it'd be interesting to watch the way the front page evolves during the day and how posts make it to the top. It's also convenient when you don't want to constantly reload.All feedback is appreciated.http://hnlive.cf

It doesn't seem to have gone down for me, it's possibly just taking a while to load for whatever reason.

There actually are comments. Making them "live" as you say is actually a really good idea it can be like a "proposed change" kind of thing where a user makes a change and people vote on it to see if it gets changed or not. If a certain amount of people vote for the cahnge then it replaces the old code.

I made the app because I am always looking for little code snippets such as cases where I need to find regex to extract URLs or Emails, so I figured why not create a site where people can post short little bits like that and make it searchable? So that was the motivation.

Hey guys! This is a little project I've been working on and I was hoping to get some feedback. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
