Er...Meta^2Talk. (imagine that being a recursive link)

1(rhetorical). What's with the worldwide fascination with Wil all of a sudden?

2. Why's this here, instead of on the front page(if there)? Not to dredge up the "MeTa is being overused" argument again, but this has nothing to do with either MeFi, or weblogs in general, other than the fact Wil has one. And from scanning the article, his didn't even really come up.

I was actually going to post a comment last night on how things that could be front-page posts are now delegated to MetaTalk. Isn't blogging news still viable for FPPs?

He's the most famous weblogger ever, besides Ru Paul.

yeah... he's one of the blogging "names" that're just there. he's got the status of kottke, but without people bashing him too much yet. i'd much rather have this here than on the front page.

Yeah, yeah. Sure, sure. But have you cast your vote yet for Wil Wheaton as Person of the Year?

Darnit, he's not even in the top 10! And who's been gunning for Pope Hadrian VII?

Obviously we need a "Wil Wheaton" category.

Hey, let the man have his go, you don't have to put him down just because he's some sort of a celebrity...
