Good to hear that it's addictive.
If you could 'see' the data behind the popularity (forks and stars), would you see it updating quite frequently?
We wouldn't want to reorder automatically, but we could look at doing something else. :pensive:
I'm not sure if the popularity changes fast enough to see many changes - we'd have to scale up a bit to see those kind of trends. But the Recent Notebooks tab on our internal instance is showing a full page of notebooks that have been edited in the past hour, and a couple more pages for the past day.
It's really neat to see at a glance who the active users are, and what they're working on.
So you think that reordering would be too disruptive? Maybe if it were opt-in, under a Follow checkbox/querystring? More like something you'd want to see on a display wall than to actually navigate.
Ah OK, sorry, missed that somehow the first time around, but actually, I think it would be good if, as you suggest:
But that might work quite nicely, don't you think?
In fact, I'm sure there's a lot more we can do with the design on the discover page, that extends beyond a grid of notebooks.
The Recent Notebooks page is unexpectedly addictive, at least on an active instance.
Why not refresh it, say every minute?
@shaneporter, do you think this would be difficult? Or disorienting?
