For those that aren't aware, check out the "/r/tabled" subreddit [1]. From the official description: "a subreddit for tables of recent threads from places such as... /r/IAmA, /r/InternetAMA, /r/AMA, /r/AskReddit, /r/AskScience" It makes things nice to read. Of course, Bill Gates' new AMA will not be "tabled" yet, but as an example (and in case you missed it), here is his AMA from February 2013 [2].

Check out http://topiama.com http://topiama.com (It was posted here some time ago, I have no connection with that site), I find it has a very nice interface. Like r/tabled, his new iAmA it's not here, but to give the same example, here's his old one: http://www.topiama.com/r/911/im-bill-gates-cochair-of-the-bill-melinda-gates http://www.topiama.com/r/911/im-bill-gates-cochair-of-the-bi...

  Thanks for the reminder about topiama. I knew something like this existed, but forgot where. I was thinking recently about writing my own as a quick pet project. Still might, just for fun. It's actually a bit surprising to me that reddit themselves have not written an IAMA question-answer view. Celebrity AMAs have become a pretty big draw for reddit, but browsing them from the default view sucks. Perhaps they view it like they do the mobile clients (the community does them better), but it would be nice to have something native to reddit for this behaviour.

    It makes a pretty good RSS feed, even if I do skip the majority of them.

  I appreciate the link! I created topiama and posted it on hackernews almost 2 years ago. As a fellow user of topiama... I am a bit annoyed at how it looks on mobile. What I plan to do is use bootstrap to make a nice responsive layout for all devices. Stay tuned. Probably Spring/Summer.

In the meantime, the best way to keep up is to go to his profile page and refresh every now and then.

  Eventually went ahead and wrote a small chrome extension which injects some css and javascript into IAMA threads to make it easy to switch between the full thread and a simplified Q&A thread. See https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/cleanama-for-reddit/kejdemgidmnbpdgepmcacjckmiekpakb https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/cleanama-for-reddi... if you think you need something of the sort.
