Does this module duplicate the functionality of Views Exclude Previous?

http://drupal.org/project/views_exclude_previous

Perhaps you could join forces?

Thanks for pointing that out, somehow I missed that module when I was searching. I will have a look at it and shut down this project unless there is a good reason not to.

Funyn enough both the modules were on the same search results in google when searching for site:drupal.org views

Anyhow I tried out yours, and looked at the others.

I suggest abounding yours, and merging 2 parts of it into theirs

Site wide enable for view unique (good for when dealing with a simple site, don't need to add it into the views)
and how you determined whether a node has been seen; currently the other module does a search on the theme layer I believe, which seems a bit ugly and potentially flawed if someone overrides whatever is producing that class name (if it can be overriden).
