This is great. But it would be nicer if the algorithm to randomly place the new messages would attempt to not obscure the most recent ones; sometimes I was trying to read a really interesting message and it got covered up before I finished reading.
Gee, I never knew that gist was being used to spam live-tv stream blogspot links. I got my hopes up that someone had a script that would automagically connect me to the live baseball game of my choosing... ah well, what was I thinking.
Otherwise it's fun to watch, and a surprising amount are actually interesting/relevant.

Yeah I also hadn't realized that there was spam on github, but you notice it quite often here.
Surprisingly entertaining -- thanks! It'd be nice if the the popup messages had a force field around them, so they stayed readable for as long as possible.
Glad you like it!
That's a good idea. It's definitely not using space very optimally as it is, though it's meant to feel like a busy "hubbub" / very active, so that's somewhat intentional.

I wish commits were collapsed into one blob, there are times where 9-10 of the same face pop up with various commit logs. Slightly annoying.
What is it based on? Global activity? I am seeing 99% "Eclipse Platform project repository".
haha yeah I just saw that as well — apparently eclipse just uploaded several years' worth of tags.
it's a very simple wrapper around the github events api: https://api.github.com/events (or in the code at https://github.com/hrldcpr/githubbub/blob/master/githubbub.j...)
in particular, it shows the main event types that have substantial text content in them, so mostly commits and comments.

It does not work in Opera.
