Everyday I get in touch with "top" program in Linux. So I'm excited to see this top-like Reddit website viewer via console. It had a "top" user interface for a reading news from Reddit. Reddit itself is a digg-style social news site that became one of the sites that I enjoy for this past year.
Reddit Top was actually derived from Hacker Top. Hacker Top was made in such a manner that it required me just to write a new parser for Reddit to create the new program. The program is written in Python programming language and uses ncurses interface for displaying the stories.
Can't wait to try it in my Powerbook!
