Top moments are generated based on your current view and what you haven't marked as read. "Aaron Schwartz Commits Suicide" post got a lot of points https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5046845

Yes, is there any sites you would like to see there first?

I've started with Google Calendar, then Twitter, then Reddit and now HackerNews. HackerNews so far is the best dataset to start with. Reddit integration is half done, but still not sure on subreddits because there are too many of them.

not at the moment, I should probably be more explicit about that. I removed registration to simplify the process for new visitors. And you still can keep track of news you've read.

that's a good idea, probably will do it in the nearest future. Thanks for the feedback

I'll answer only the first and the last questions (:

not sure about cupcakes, but blueberry muffins would be my choice, I just assume you are a cupcake manufacturer and perform customer analysis.

As for the rest I should probably write a small blog post to sum up all of that. In short server is ruby on rails, client is mostly emberjs + d3js. I also post updates on StoryLine blog, so check it out, it should give you an idea on progress of things. http://blog.storyline.im/

that would be great, I still don't have any designers involved in the project so the current version is very simplistic, pretty much the best I could do.

you can find me on twitter @antulik

yeah, it's by design because that part was changed not that long ago. Before lines were crossing each other, so had to change the logic of what news to show on the right. I agree with you, it does look confusing with empty boxes, will need to fix it up. Thanks for the feedback.

Personalised priorities are definitely in the plans, probably not in the nearest future as I want to refine core features first.

I like the idea of showing selected items on the left, will need to think how it would work with narrow 1024px browsers. Perhaps selected news could float on top of the graph.

and I agree article preview or abstract would be definitely more useful, will look into it. Thanks for the feedback.

StoryLine is my pet project. If you have any questions I'm happy to answer them. It's still in early stages and I'm keen to hear your feedback.
