If anybody provides some particularly interesting feedback, or one of us has anything cool to say, we'd say it here. Who knows? It might be interesting, if we ever have anything to say.

• User:Jacoplane has submitted us to Digg's new podcasting service.
• Significant comments from [http://wikipediaweekly.com/2006/12/11/wikipedia-weekly-9-new-board-members/#comments Episode 9]:
• Keep pushing subscription
• Sound quality
• MUCH better than last episode. Keep it up!
• Oh, and do not type while on air
• Now using {{tl|WikipediaWeekly-subscription}} to coordinate meetings.
• From JoeSmack: If you have IRC (I use Chatzilla) you can look at a bot-feed of anything added to Wikipedia with ‘http://’ in it - great for removing linkspam (which is a growing problem). The bot itself is named Linkwatcher (User:Eagle_101/Linkwatcher), and you can see this feed at #wikipedia-spam (freenode), or ask about it on its talk channel at #wikipedia-spam-t. It really is brilliant to see; you can just do a couple of middle-clicks from the channel and get the page dif and view the potential spam link, making it simply a matter of to revert changes or not. You might mention more of this in next epsiode; i know they are terribly over-worked and could use more volunteers.
