Show HN: A different interface for reading Hacker News

Doesn't work for me --- nothing loads in either pane, nothing happens when I click on either of the links at the top.<p>(I'm using Firefox 3.6.13.)

This is something I hacked up in about two hours using the iHackerNews API, serve, haml, and jQuery. It was inspired by the view many apps use on tablets in widescreen mode - list of items on the left, expanded content on the right.<p>The UI is not polished at all, but I wanted to get this out to get feedback.<p>On my TODO list for Pyxis: - Better UI - Load more pages (currently only the first page of the frontpage is loaded) - Use the history API to make the UI state shareable.<p>The source is on <a href="https://github.com/moeffju/pyxis" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/moeffju/pyxis</a>, so feel free to fork it and improve on it.

Briefly amuse yourself by clicking "Show HN: A different interface for reading Hacker News" in each nested frame.

Pretty cool. Why not have another column for comments instead of making users to click? Maybe put this as an option for users to select, because I'm sure there are a lot of people who are using widescreen monitors and are not fully utilizing it. I'm suggesting this as an option, because there are other batch of people who uses vertical mode.

The line under each link "51 points, 27 comments" should be clickable and take you directly to the HN thread.

Has potential.<p>1) Make the 'x comments' part a separate link that opens the comments tab.<p>2) try and put the domain linked to somewhere<p>Otherwise, I like this interface

ha cool . . . pretty similar to something I crudely put together awhile back:<p><a href="http://hackskimmer.heroku.com" rel="nofollow">http://hackskimmer.heroku.com</a><p>it uses viewtext to make things 'readable', which unfortunately seems to be choking right now<p>I wanted to put something together to let me get through hackernews quickly when i didn't want to get caught up in the comments.

Doesn't work in Firefox 1.5.0.6. Not that I expect it would - nothing whizzy does. Mind you, that's part of the reason why I use it.
