Followup to AskMe Question
Thanks to everybody who answered my AskMe question about wheelchair-accessible train travel in Spain. I'm now back from the trip and have some results to report, but the thread is closed, so I thought I'd put them here in case it's of use to future travelers.
East Bay Meetup Photos
A few photos of last night's East Bay meetup shenanigans. In keeping with the no-paparazzi aim of the meetup, these are all just buttons, art and chests, plus shoutouts. Thanks to the East Bayers for organizing and for bringing the cards.

Is it ok to post followups in threads?
Where to put Askme Followups
Matt, should we use MetaTalk to follow-up our AskMe questions? Or should we use AskMe? Or neither?
14 bucks project tabled
Aw, almost a year has passed since the 14 bucks project launched and it looks like bird0g hung it up before even doubling the money. I ran into this while tagging my archives, figured it was worth mentioning again.
poo will always be flung around here
For those involved in the MLK Weatherman fired thread, I call your attention so some first hand action.
I point this out because while poo will always be flung around here, gems like this can only be found on blogs such as here and help to keep this place awesome. Plus, there's nothing like quelling rumors that will naturally arise with firsthand accounts

Milan Meetup Followup
Cashmere sweaters, rare organic green tea, fine arts photography, designer sex toys. This, and much more, just happened at the First MeFi International Transoceanic Interfaith Metrosexual Milan Meetup. More inside.
Followup: Show your MeFi Designs
I believe the deadline for the MeFi Design Contest has passed. Does anybody who entered have the nerve to show off their actual entries to the MeFi public? I have half a notion to, but I don't want to be the first (or anything before sixth) to expose my web design shortcomings...
SF Meetup
Dear MetaTalk,
I never thought I'd be writing to you, but I wanted to tell you about the hot action at the SF MeetUp last night. [more inside]

Seattle Meetup Photos
Seattle Mofi Mefi Blog thing pix. Uncaptioned, but many shoutouts. Sorry we missed ya, NJ.
anonymous askme has no way to follow up
The first question in this anonymous AskMe post made me realize that there is no way for anyone posting anonymously to provide information beyond the initial query.
Where to post an AskMe followup?
I apologize two-fold, one for my unwilling absence from the scintillating minds that are my MeFi sisters and brethren...and secondly, because this may very well be the wrong arena, but darned if I know where to post AskMe follow ups...so here it is. A month or more back, I asked for advice on taking a specific type of pictures. The advice that I was given, both online, and in one case, carried into email, was invaluable. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who contributed. You not only made me a better photographer, but you taught me a new way to see.
Blues, military and history
Ancient Chinese subway poem AskMe followup
In the green, I recently posted a question about a poem I once read but couldn't locate. I was asked to post the poem if I found it, which I have. The original thread has been archived, so I'm posting it here. I hope this isn't an etiquette violation. If it is, I'm sorry.
UK Meetup Photos
Amberglow comes to the UK. Post your pictures and stories here. [One of those clever arrow..arrow things that means more inside]
I've never quite figured out the etiquette to follow-up posts...

Wired Memespread Article
Not worth a front page post, but anyone who found the memespread project interesting might also be interested in this follow-up article in Wired. [via gulker.com]
Followup material goes where now?
Is MetaTalk a good place to point out that the verdict described in this thread was just overturned?
I often find follow-up material like this long after the original thread is gone. It doesn't seem worth a whole new FPP, but I do think that people who read the original post would want to know. FollowupFilterSidebar?

Gmail is Up
Not worth starting a new MeFi thread for, but gmail is up and running. Previous discussion here. Active Blogger users are being asked to join. I did, and have sent and received my first emails. The service is pretty slick, and has a nice interface, as far as I've discovered so far.
Boudreaux SAVED my dad
Follow-up to the recent photoshop/"Boudreaux killed my dad" thread: the lance corporal's mom, who runs a computer store and has been living in fear, says the original was "Boudreaux saved my dad."
Blog Justice on the Wild Web
Blog Justice on the Wild Web SXSW speaker's stolen purse sparks online race war of words (A follow up to this MeFi Post)
Follow-up: Compiled album recommendation list.
I requested for MeFi'ers to recommend an album (or two or three) yesterday on Ask Metafilter, and got a total of 121 unique recommendations. [more inside]
Madison Meetup Photos
Photos from the Madison meetup on Saturday. We were a small group compared to last time, but fun was still had.
A couple of months ago, I posted a question to AskMe. I now think I have an answer.
A couple of months ago, I posted a question to AskMe. It generated a lot of interest and responses, but no definitive answer. I now think I have an answer. What should I do?
1. Keep it to myself.
2. Post it to the old, archived thread?
3. Make a new FPP?
I suspect #3 would piss some people off (because the FPP wouldn't be asking a new question), but if someone else found an answer to an old question, I'd prefer them to make a FPP. If they posted it to an ancient, archived thread, I would probably never think to go there and read it.

Portland Meetup Followup
Why no commentary nor pictures of the MeFi Portland meetup? Here it is, Monday, and not a word about it. Did it happen? Did #1 make it? Did any of you?
adding new information (inspired by WalMart shopper story)
The story of the trampled Wal-Mart shopper was a a FPP post a few days ago. It turns out it might have been contrived. As I read the latest story, I felt that somehow the record had to be set straight on mf with this new information (I am an idealist, I suppose). But, at the same time, it certainly did not seem to be worthy of a new FPP. How does MF- as a community- handle retractions or new (conflicting) information without gumming up the front page with mediocre posts? Or is it not even worth worrying about?
Oxford Meetup Photos
Drink! Police action! More drink! Noise! Drink! Ice Cream! You thought it would never happen but you were wrong. The first ever MeFi UK meetup in merrie old Oxford, England. Photography occured...
DC Meetup Photos
At the DC meetup last night, we had cameras. [More inside.]
Vancouver Meetup Photos
A small but extremely congenial group of Vancouver metafiltarians met at the Sylvia last night. I have pictures. (I hope salmonberry's turned out better.)
This is definitely now how we do an update
Something really got your knickers in a knot? Well, then, don't just put it on the front page once. Wait one day and post an update. Note that in this case, the update's new information is a week old and was already posted in the original thread.
"follow-up" mechanism?
Have you ever considered a "follow-up" mechanism of some sort?
NYC Meetup Photos
More Pictures of the New York MetaFilter meet-up. Anyone else have any more, from other MetaFilter party localities? Post a link to them in here...
Followup to Girls Gone Wild lawsuit
As a follow-up (of sorts) to questions posed in this thread from last September, a Texas State University student was today awarded $5 million for being shown in a 'Girls Gone Wild'-style video. Though the producers allegedly did more than simply filming the events, this may open a floodgate for similar lawsuits.
Followup: Amnesiac may have been a (gay) porn star
Here's an interesting follow up to this wonderful thread from August. Phillip Stauffen, a man suffering from
amnesia, may have been a gay porn star according to a man in France. Wait, it gets better. Inspector Steven Bone of the Toronto police will have to comb through the evidence... link from *cough* fark.com.

AU may back off unsuccessful "Pacific Solution"
AU may back off unsuccessful "Pacific Solution"
Howard himself may be clearing the ground for a back down. In a marked departure from his election campaign rhetoric, he said in an interview last week that turning asylum seekers' boats back to sea was "completely inhuman."
That's not just marked, it's a 180! There was a bit of interest in this story here a while ago, but I thought this new wrinkle in AU's aid-for-beds deal with Pacific nations didn't merit another "FPP." (see also 1, 2)

Scholarship competition: followup needed
So, when will we hear the results of the scholarship competition? My understanding is that the most-vote-getter wins, but I was expecting a sidebar link about it, if not a ticker-tape parade, at least !
