It just seems that this link: http://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=pg has all the same data, and more "context", as you can see his comments and peoples replies.

Also, the majority of his comments are somewhat, uh, boring when you see them all laid out. Just simple comments/replies a lot of the time really.

I would hardly call this a "giant essay", it's more like half of a Twitter feed...

Now that you mentioned it I bet a twitter feed with all of pg's comments would have a lot of subscribers, all you need is to throw in some random advertising and it might be a good way to monetize the crowd's obsession with pg.

Unless I'm mistaken, that page doesn't go back more than a day, which would mean it has less than a 1% of the data.

Could be there's a "more" button I'm not seeing, though.

Surely any devout pg stalker reloads once an hour. Probably with a ruby or arc script.
