Mongrel2 (http://mongrel2.org/home) might help with that.
I'll try to write a blog post tomorrow... www.michaelhart.me
It would also be nice if I could login somehow and vote/comment on your page (real time comments maybe?). Great stuff tho!
edit: just noticed that your version of the home page is completely different than the one here. Or am I missing something?
edit2: scratch that, you display items in reverse order. Why is that?
As for the text, I'll lower the opacity to like 5% and see if that helps. Also adding spacing now.
Thanks :D
edit: spacing added; looks much better :) thanks again!

But, for me, I prefer the regular, static, interface. The main page doesn't change enough to warrant using a a realtime interface.
I agree with the added spacing, also it doesnt matter if backgrounds are very opaque they are still distracting while they are visible.
I would prefer to not have both screens viewable, just the same interface by clicking new / home on the top navigation.
Thanks for doing this, looks like a fun experiment
As for duplicates, I have tried to make that much less likely by putting the status closer to the update query. There are lot of hits per second, which causes that. (Queries take around 0.005s to perform; if 2 hits within that time period, then it could update the cache twice (or more)).
I really like the layout and everything.
