You can follow latest updates from Connor today here. We will also be adding a number of the other NYG beat writers soon (most likely tomorrow).

test comments section...can someone post in the comments section in the bottom. Thanks!

Why was that the plan?

I am, but I thought you were telling me something was wrong with the section.
is the twitter feed  
Antdog23 : 7/23/2014 12:07 pm : link
supposed to update live? I'm having to constantly refresh the page on IE. It completely crashes my chrome brower, shockwave plugin crashes.
Well, there was, until Gary fixed it.  
Klaatu : 7/23/2014 12:08 pm : link
I thought an "Ultimate Computer" reference would be funny.
Nevermind  
Antdog23 : 7/23/2014 12:09 pm : link
it just updated for me, guess I wasn't patient enough. Still crashing my Chrome browser though.

we're going to add a few of the NYG beat writers to this too...so the tweets will come much faster.
you  
Eric from BBI : Admin : 7/23/2014 12:20 pm : link
don't have to refresh for feed.

Seems like you have to refresh for comments. Hope to change that if possible.
BTW  
Eric from BBI : Admin : 7/23/2014 12:23 pm : link
if we get the bugs out of this - we'll do this on gameday too since Connor will be at the stadium. Again, with other beat writers.
Runs kinda choppy for me

that back...Connor posting Reese tweets now.
I like it., great addition Eric!  
Wonderphil11 : 7/23/2014 12:41 pm : link
I don't know if this is possible but, is there anyway to run Connor's feed and the comments side by side? It would eliminate a lot of scrolling up and down. If not, maybe you can reverse the updated info so that the updates for Connor and the comments meet in the middle and can be read together....just a thought.
Wonderphil11  
Eric from BBI : Admin : 7/23/2014 12:45 pm : link
we could reverse the comments if more people want that.

That sounds like a good idea.
we're

going to look into a better comments section too.
OK  
Eric from BBI : Admin : 7/23/2014 1:01 pm : link
I reversed the comments...newer at top.
Great...

One tweak may be to surpress.....  
Ryan : 7/23/2014 2:38 pm : link
....re-tweets from showing in the stream. Every time someone re-tweets Connor it shows up in the stream so theres a lot of duplication.
This "Show" is like the Giants online show.  
Tark10 : 7/23/2014 2:53 pm : link
Starts late, rotten audio, cuts out constantly, quits early. Let Ramses Barden and Sinorice Moss handle all this stuff.
Agree with Ryan's comment

The retweets are annoying.
Here is the url to create a retweet free widget

Scyber. We have to find a way to prevent re-tweets on Live Update, but not BBI twitter.
I got 59 posts on the

Eric, by having the set users tweets show up, that will prevent all the RT showing up. The reason the RT showed up was because a RT acts as a second-tweet. One from the initial sender, one by the person who RT'd. When someone would retweet my post that had "#BBI" included, it automatically showed up in the box.

This issue should be fixed tomorrow.

Other than that, did you guys enjoy this feature?
section  
Eric from BBI : Admin : 7/23/2014 4:23 pm : link
In the comments section yes because only a few of us seemed to be using it.

There must have been over 100 tweets however.
