Github activity stream

That's a good idea. It's definitely not using space very optimally as it is, though it's meant to feel like a busy "hubbub" / very active, so that's somewhat intentional.

it's a very simple wrapper around the github events api: https://api.github.com/events (or in the code at https://github.com/hrldcpr/githubbub/blob/master/githubbub.j...)

in particular, it shows the main event types that have substantial text content in them, so mostly commits and comments.
