How about one for HN?

I have emailed Reddit about the legality of this project. (Have not received a response yet) So far it seems likely that I will have to take down the site. So consider this a small preview I suppose. I plan to port this to a Chrome Extension. Do you guys find this format much more readable than the current completed IAmA?

Yes I much prefer this format, great job. The only thing thing that I don't like is that the questions are hard to read for me. Maybe because they're large blocks of text in bold.

There definitely need to be context links to the original comments.

I like this, although I do think it would be better if each comment had a permalink back to the original so that we could see all the responses, not just the one by the person who created the thread.

I guess we should be glad Craig Newmark does not own Reddit.

Paging is buggy.

This is great, would love to see it as a chrome extension!

There used to be a comment bot/person who put all the reddit AMA questions into a tabular format - I recently discovered it has a pretty useful subreddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/tabled

I actually prefer that format over this one.

This is great! I second the request for an RSS feed for the new IAMAs. Thanks for the site!
