Because of it, I was expecting some ultra fast github search ... it took me about a minute or two of staring at the interface to figure out it was just a repo browser.
I was always annoyed by the ajaxless slow github directory listing, especially on java-deep repos, when I stumbled on this project I found it a god-sent so I hurried to HN to post it.
Thanks for the love :) It's funny because when I posted it a while back, my post went nowhere, couldn't even make it to the frontpage. I thought with the high number of Github users here on HN, it would get a bit more traction. But it got picked up by TheChangeLog and surprisingly a lot of Japanese sites. I guess the posting time on HN is very critical on how the post gets read and upvoted. Nonetheless, I'm glad that more people know about GithubFinder and I can help save their time.
I'd highly recommend the Bookmarklet and the Userscript. Both are real time savers. There are other enhancements that I have not had a chance to implement, such as bookmarkable URL and better syntax highlighting, hopefully GHF will be even better when that's done.

Nice job otherwise though.
