Backbars adds ambient bar charts to social news sites 15 Jun 2009

Backbars is a GreaseMonkey script that turns the headlines of social bookmarking/news sites (like Digg, Delicious and Reddit) into ambient bars in a bar chart. The idea is to give you, the user, subtle non-verbal clues to help you pick out the most popular bookmarks/links. To paraphrase its inventor, Eli, Backbars allows you "to see without thinking".
