Weird. Metatalk threads can be loaded with podcast URLS.

Found this via Google, actually, while surfing for a question about navigating MeFi in Opera Mini.

Are the mods going to be producing audio recordings of themselves reading every MetaTalk thread? That would be awesome.

No, we should just require every Metatalk post or comment to be submitted with a reading by the author so the podcast can be autogenerated.

There's a reason it's called MetaTALK.

The author? Or JAMES EARL JONES?

I heard Ridley Scott was redirecting a film version of Monopoly.

I can see the headline now: "Ridley Scott doesn't Monopolize box office"

piggybacking weirdness ... anybody else seeing "Error: File not found" at the bottom of threads on the blue?

I'm getting "Error: File not found" and the search page when I hit Post Comment after Preview.
