Real world and teh internets collide!

Result = del.icio.us (Yes I know bad pun, but I couldn’t resist!).

So Adam Savage (of Mythbusters fame – and one of my favourite shows on TV) is a longtime member of MetaFilter.

Running short of ideas for a new episode; he decided to post a question on Ask Metafilter and there was incredible flood of responses. Adam has promised to make a shout-out to Mefi during the filming of the episode as thanks for all the help¹.

This isn’t the first time this has happened on MeFi though – a question about Steve Wozniak on Ask Mefi, actually got Woz himself to register and add to the conversation.

He’s already started doing so, as pointed out by a commenter [↩]
