Update on the Future of HN

We don't support auto play audio at present. Out of millions of plays per month, a few hundred slip past the goalie. The video ads will stay

I'm glad I don't have as many slip by the goalie as Jon does.

Getting that many shots on goal would be interesting...

Wilt Chamberlin did.

Do you plan on keeping the "blog" functionality (associated to a user's "page / info" area.) I'm thinking no - based on that example link, or because lot's of info presented in these little blog pages could just as easily be presented as normal posts. That being said, having more options (more space for bio's, links, photos, etc) in the user area would be nice... not critical though.

I'd ultimately like to create something where users who want to write can do so, and then those posts are automatically pulled into a 'blog' section.

Sort of like they do at ISD: Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football, Basketball and Recruiting Blogs- IrishSportsDaily.com
