Preview of Twitter autorefresh when not scrolled or overlaid

Twitter autorefresh when not scrolled or overlaid by Jeffrey Richman

Automatically loads new tweets on Twitter.com every 1.5 seconds unless the page is scrolled or an overlay/popup is open. Just a normal autorefresh script but designed to not interfere with reading or commenting.

About this extension
For any twitter.com tab, the plugin runs a repeating 1.5 second timer, checking to see if the "load new tweets" element is visible. If so, and if no twitter overlay is open, it will click that element to load new tweets.

It doesn't collect or use any user data, and it's unlikely that twitter can tell that it's being used at all.
