  Document: README (!!)
  
The SoUpdater is my first own project that I consider as a start to creating a sub-browsing inside your webbrowser.Its like reading an RSS feed as part of your browser(not something like Rockmelt do!) but adding more to it. The idea
that you can build your own subsidiary world to browse gives great advantage in customizing it to your own interest.

SoUpdater is one start towards that. 

This project creates a sidebar as part of Google chrome that loads the latest questions in discussed in stackoverflow website without the user having to refresh to get the latest ones. It provides the 
flexibility of setting the no.of questions to be loaded and to customize it based on your login.

This add-on is not build using Stackoverflow API 2.0 so this will definitely break with API 2.0.

People who want to use the sidebar alone should modify the sidebar.js file. 

The installation of the extension is quite simple all you need to do is download the entire repo and put it in a folder and go to Chrome->Tools->Extensions and add Unpackaged extension and point to the folder that you just created. That is! You will get the extension in chrome to be tested.
