Although my first reaction was surprise at how awful the default front page of reddit is (I do use reddit but I don't subscribe to the pic- and meme-heavy subreddits).
The new content pushing in from the top displaces content you may currently be looking at. If you are reading a text snippet, or starting an embedded video and new content comes in it's easy to lose where you were as the content pushes down the page and changes the columns as well.
That is true. I haven't found an elegant solution for that, do you've a good idea? I thought about only loading new content when the 'scrolldit' logo is visible for a user.

How about text snippets for the text links?

Everything is clientside javascript. Amazon Cloudfront is used as hosting (See http://aaronblohowiak.com/using-amazon-s3-and-cloudfront-to-...). So scalability issues are impossible.
Works great on iPad/iPhone/Android. Any feedback?
