Maybe someone at YouTube reads xkcd.

So a couple days (or was it weeks) ago, I saw this comic from the ever excellent xkcd and thought it was pretty funny. Today, I find out that YouTube really implemented it!

See the new button 'Audio Preview'; it is where 'Post Comment' used to be!

The audio playback is pretty good (though it unsurprisingly muddles through lorem ipsum text). One can only hope users guilty of idiot comments will suffer unspeakable blows to their self-esteem from this new feature.

Hello

Most folks who visit random notes seem to hang around for about 9.312 minutes on average.

My name is and I fear my eyesight is failing, which may force me to increase the type size around here.
