Use of Realtime Updates for 'read right now' #41

I used our own Websocket-Backbone Tambur.io for that, of course we like to support this project! ;)

Cool. Two questions:

Is it correct that I can't see this feature in my local instance?
Could my approach have worked, too? What's the advantage of using Tambur.io? (just for my learning process, not doubting your judgement...)

should also work on your local instance. Open the index.html in another browser window and select the twitter user you want to read, you should see a new button automagically appended in your first browser window (at least if you select another use)

Doesn't work for me in Chrome/Safari/FF. But so it's only realtime? If nobody else is using it, nothing is displayed? I think we should display the latest n searches.

Found the problem. You had myUser in there – which I had renamed to myInput while working on the hashtag issue (#20). Works now and is live.
