Nice - is it possible to make this a Firefox add-in for a sidebar??
- Les Zaldor
Les - yes a side bar would be great. Shouldn't be too hard, but I haven't done an add-in before. Would solve some of the frame issues - via StumbleRead

Thanks for the likes! - via StumbleRead

only gripe so far is that I'm used to the google reader shortcuts (j,k for next prev), otherwise looks great.

John - I'll add J and K. I got N and P from google reader :) - via StumbleRead

hmm... lemme look and see if there are any errors on the server side - via StumbleRead

Works great in safari. Very nice. - via StumbleRead

I wish the comments were reverse chronological so newest comment was on top. - via StumbleRead
- Matt Hartzler
Server side looks in good shape. Don't know about reverse chrono comments - need to take a vote :). - via StumbleRead

I was thinking of hiding comments after the last two. - via StumbleRead

OK - I deployed support for J and K hotkeys :). - via StumbleRead
- Adam Loving
Thanks Adam! How about collapsing the comments down to show the first and last couple, with a more link, like friendfeed does?
- John Duff
Another thought, is there any way to filter out posts that you have already looked at, unless there was a comment added?
- John Duff
John - yes collapsible comments sound great. Any preference on whether the comments are in chronological or reverse chronological order? So far I've got one strong vote for reverse :).
- Adam Loving
With regard to dropping read posts... I think I could make this work. I don't think it would be too disruptive because the posts get scrambled every 180s (to preserve the "most recently touched" order that FF puts them in). I feel an options page coming on...!
- Adam Loving
adam: nice job. small UI thing: is there a way to insert a line break after "{ } posted an item on { }"? as is, this line runs right into the title of the linked item, and causes a momentary bump as you're reading along. thanks!
- Bill Barol
Hi Bill - excellent point. I didn't want to add a full line break there in order to condense everything as much as possible. However, today I added a colon to give it a little more separation. hope that works for you.

I'm pretty new to all this FF stuff but, to my newbie eyes, this is a great bit of kit Adam! Also love the way you're responding so swiftly to users' comments :)

FYI, links to NY Times articles seem to close the left-hand StumbleRead panel.
- Robert Gable
I wasn't able to find away around pages with "frame buster" javascript (like the NYT). However, I've introduced a new "pop-out" mode which doesn't suffer from this problem.
