My impatience for the follow button to be implemented forced me to create this =P
@roelandp created the amazing steemstream.com. It looks great, the graph is pretty sweet plus the particle effects... but all I want is to be able to follow people! I got fed up and tore roeland's code apart (sorry) as best I could to try and cobble something together.
Steemitx.com simply filters the blockstream by account name
Enter account names in the search box separated by commas, then wait for results! They will start appearing on the right. Just leave the window open on a separate screen or another tab and check it from time to time for results.
This looks for actions coming from these users, not directed at them.
So with dan's name entered in the search box, if @dan upvotes something, you will see it, but if you upvote one of @dan 's posts, it won't show up.
NOTE: You have to wait a few moments for someone to do something before the right column begins filling up
