I made a tool to browse HN on an iPod Classic in the browser

Hey HN! For the past few months I’ve been plagued by the idea of scrolling through Hacker News on an iPod so I finally decided to bring it to life (using iPod.js) on a browser. There's something magical about the nostalgia of using an iPod Classic for me. Anyway, it works for HN, and then I added some other stuff like Twitter and watching Youtube videos in cover flow.
