Improves the pagespeed and load time of large liveblogs by lazy-loading entries.

## Description ##

When using the [liveblog](https://wordpress.org/plugins/liveblog/) plugin

developed by Automattic, liveblogs with lots of entries, especially if

they take advantage of the oEmbed functionality to render content from

third-party providers liek Twitter or Vine, can take an inordinate amout

of time to load. This issue stems from embed handlers from these providers

scanning the entire markup of the document, and replacing numerous divs of

markup in the content at once, making the page unresponsive as the DOM

thrashes through dozens of replacements.

This plugin addresses this by loading a relatively small number of entries

initially, then attaching the rest in batches until all entries are

rendered. In this way, "above the fold" content is rendered and

interactive quickly, and additional content is rendered and replaced once

all visible content is loaded and ready.

## Installation ##

1. Upload the plugin folder to your plugins directory and activate it.  

2. That's it!
