You can fork streamie on github, edit stuff in /public and eventually access <YourGitHubUsername>.streamie.org without having to deploy it yourself.

Read the author’s blog post about it: http://www.nonblocking.io/2010/08/future-is-here-i-just-fork...


I heard that guy is storing oauth credentials. ;-)


I tried doing something similar a few months ago.

It's surprisingly difficult :D Kudos on making it work! How did you get around crashing browsers? I tried displaying the full-ish stream API and the browser would soon lag behind the real stream and finally die.


I saw something sort of similar a few weeks ago from jdub of gnome fame. http://www.hellodenby.com/blog/
