I would imagine <a href="http://www.metafilter.com/127637/365-Wonder-Animation-Project">this</a> current post would be a contender. post:metatalk.metafilter.com,2013:site.22619 Thu, 02 May 2013 09:56:22 -0800 Chrysostom By: pb http://metatalk.metafilter.com/22619/My-God-its-full-of-links#1073950 No, we don't have that info. We don't track number of links per post or comment. comment:metatalk.metafilter.com,2013:site.22619-1073950 Thu, 02 May 2013 10:01:58 -0800 pb By: Curious Artificer http://metatalk.metafilter.com/22619/My-God-its-full-of-links#1073951 It was probably <a href="http://www.metafilter.com/57336/I-like-to-watch">this one by stavrosthewonderchicken</a> <small>who is actually a decent fellow who usually doesn't go in for the stunty stunt type of stuff, but there you go</small> comment:metatalk.metafilter.com,2013:site.22619-1073951 Thu, 02 May 2013 10:07:36 -0800 Curious Artificer By: elizardbits http://metatalk.metafilter.com/22619/My-God-its-full-of-links#1073952 troll's awesome post on Bill Nye the Science Guy had a huge number of links, but not nearly as many as stav's. comment:metatalk.metafilter.com,2013:site.22619-1073952 Thu, 02 May 2013 10:09:57 -0800 elizardbits By: filthy light thief http://metatalk.metafilter.com/22619/My-God-its-full-of-links#1073984 <a href="http://www.metafilter.com/106197/Consider-the-following">Here's the Bill Nye post in question</a>. I thought <a href="http://www.metafilter.com/119370/High-Weirdness-By-Mail">JHarris' High Weirdness by Mail post</a> had more links, but it's more write-up than linkage. comment:metatalk.metafilter.com,2013:site.22619-1073984 Thu, 02 May 2013 10:56:54 -0800 filthy light thief By: onlyconnect http://metatalk.metafilter.com/22619/My-God-its-full-of-links#1074197 I thought that <a href="http://www.metafilter.com/activity/1538/posts/mefi/">tamim</a> once posted a thread on something (Bollywood???) where every letter of every word was a hypertexted link, that got alot of attention and awe at the time (a long time ago), but I can't find it so maybe I just dreamed it. <br> <br> Probably not more links than your example here though! But at the time it was remarkable. (Unless it was just a dream.) comment:metatalk.metafilter.com,2013:site.22619-1074197 Thu, 02 May 2013 15:39:57 -0800 onlyconnect By: donnagirl http://metatalk.metafilter.com/22619/My-God-its-full-of-links#1074206 Yep, it was <a href="http://www.metafilter.com/13147/">tamim and Bollywood</a>. That posting style is (thankfully) less common now, but there were quite a few like that. comment:metatalk.metafilter.com,2013:site.22619-1074206 Thu, 02 May 2013 16:01:16 -0800 donnagirl By: onlyconnect http://metatalk.metafilter.com/22619/My-God-its-full-of-links#1074219 Oh thanks donnagirl! At the time 85 links in one post was enough to merit a <a href="http://metatalk.metafilter.com/1515/Bollywood-screenwriting-overload">Metatalk post</a>! comment:metatalk.metafilter.com,2013:site.22619-1074219 Thu, 02 May 2013 16:30:30 -0800 onlyconnect By: chunking express http://metatalk.metafilter.com/22619/My-God-its-full-of-links#1074381 One link, one post: just how god intended. comment:metatalk.metafilter.com,2013:site.22619-1074381 Fri, 03 May 2013 05:12:00 -0800 chunking express By: wenestvedt http://metatalk.metafilter.com/22619/My-God-its-full-of-links#1074495 Some of the link-heavist posts seem like Trying Too Hard, but I find that posts about music (and movies, I suppose) always benefit from having more examples of an artist's/group's work. <br> <br> (And the exception-proving-the-rule to that, for me, was a one-word link about six weeks ago in a much longer post about <a href="http://www.metafilter.com/126581/New-Fire">Easter Vigil observances</a> that pointed out the group Taizé -- and I happily followed that rathole for a good long time!) comment:metatalk.metafilter.com,2013:site.22619-1074495 Fri, 03 May 2013 08:25:27 -0800 wenestvedt By: stavrosthewonderchicken http://metatalk.metafilter.com/22619/My-God-its-full-of-links#1074948 <em>who is actually a decent fellow</em> <br> <br> Well, thanks, I guess. I have never really aspired to decent fellow status, that loftiest of goals, but I will take it where I can get it.<br> <br> <small>Also, I do regret that post, the more so now that music videos are literally everywhere you look on youtube. Ah well.</small> comment:metatalk.metafilter.com,2013:site.22619-1074948 Fri, 03 May 2013 16:29:40 -0800 stavrosthewonderchicken
