Hi

Thanks for hammering our some very useful views hacks into one module. I know there's a good snippet on the module page to auto-refresh a view every x seconds but I have a different request without a clue where to start.

Could someone implement something such as: auto-detection of new content for a given view which displays a refresh button to the user if new content is found - aka like twitter's main views.

Auto-refreshes of complicated views can be a server killer on heavy traffic social network sites.

Component: General » Views Filters Auto-refresh

That's on my roadmap for auto-refresh. The way I'm thinking about it is: specify to the auto-refresher a secondary view that takes as argument the last nid returned in the previous refresh, and only returns later results. The JavaScript code is then responsible for placing the returned results in their correct place on the page.
