Default Make threads like facebook?

i noticed on facebook that if your on someones status or photo and someone comments on it, it will automatically show up without having to refresh the page.. i was wondering if we could make the threads like this. sometimes i hate always having to refresh the page just to see if someone posted in the thread so instead of having to keep refreshing it, just have the post show up automatically. its kinda nice on facebook and i figured it would be a nice little ad on for here

While auto refreshing is indeed a handy feature in some applications, its not really that hard to refresh a page though is it?

no its not but theres times where i might refresh it 6 times until someone responds. i mean i dont sit there and watch it constantly but ill walk off and come back and refresh, especially if im working on my car and have a question. it would just be nice to come back to it and see the response already there

You gotta see the humor in that. All in good fun though.

Anyway, I hate facebook, so as soon as I read "facebook" I had an allergic reaction and had to stop reading the first post. Sorry.
