Scrolldit

If you love Reddit, you need to check out Scrolldit. It is a website that allows you to scroll Reddit!

Reddit is a very popular site that helps you to find new content. Unfortunately, it does not have a very appealing interface. I do not know why Reddit is not improving its interface, but seeing the opportunity, a young man, Jonathan Bouman, came up with Scrolldit. And believe me, it is a good idea.

On Scrolldit, you can scroll through Reddit in an entirely new way. The site takes Reddit feeds and places them in sleek boxes that make it all the more easy for you to check out news, stories and opinion.

To make it more interesting, Scrolldit has included a lot of pictures along with relevant content in the boxes to help you, in a glance, get the essence of the news. There are lots of pictures and an occasional video for quick and easy use.

The app uses Amazon cloudfront and jQuery Masonry, and gets feeds using JSON and API.

So now, you can browse through Reddit in a visually appealing interface. Scrolldit is easy and exciting to use, and makes your content discovering a much smoother and happier experience. Interface is very important because the interface of Reddit makes it difficult for people to access/read stuff on the site. Now, you have a great interface and great content. Scrolldit adds to Reddit.

Scrolldit is very simple. There are no menus, ads or other things on the home page to distract the user from discovering content. But to make it easy for the user, there is a search and share.

Jonathan Bouman created Scrolldit because he loved mash-ups and endless scrolling, and lurks Reddit. According to him, Scrolldit was a way of giving something back.
