Like any other interactive site, Diaspora should be dynamic. What to know about a new message in the dialogues need to refresh the page, or check e-mail. This is just one example.
At the moment, it is worth thinking about dynamically loadable data. On the rails platform to do it is not even difficult. Suggest a poll to find out what the need of this functional.

The important thing is: Is there anyone willing to implement this and can this be done in a way to have the additional load imposed on the server minimal / the feature optional for pods with very few ressources.
Facebook use slow requests, but it requires some web server settings and not easy. I think that is enough to make a request for updates at intervals using JavaScript
I don’t think we need this poll. We are already porting parts of the website to backbone.js which renders everything on the client side and makes it much easier to dynamically load new data.
I think we need accelerate this process. My friends who do not work in IT and do not know how to construct sites inside, they say that they lack the this “little things”. And do not want to use the Diaspora, of course
As Steffen says, this functionality has been worked on for some time and is already slowly being implemented, so there’s no need for a further discussion or vote at this point.
why right this second? Does the project post what each milestone is (.5 .6, .7, .8 etc) vs just randomly adding features? maybe something is needed in .6 first that AJAX development would be duplicated if it was moved around.
