Getting some suggestions from the Geekzone Live thread we have made a small change to our frontpage.

I have removed the Facebook suggestions app from that page, moved the Friends around a bit and made more room for a longer Discussions box.

This box will automatically update itself every ten seconds and open links in a new tab/window (depending on how your browser is configured).

The auto refresh is only enabled for users that are logged in. If you are not logged in you will only see the static page. Also the auto refresh is disabled if you are visiting Geekzone from a mobile browser (we don't want refreshs every few seconds causing your mobile data account going crazy, right?).

If you don't want this automatic update to happen (it will use some bandwidth over time after all), you can change an option in your Personal Profile to disable this.
