That’s right, another new feature, this time one that people actually want! Can you tell I’m between gigs? After years of resisting, I’m finally allowing people to edit their captions, just as long as they were logged in when they made them. I think it’s pretty self explanatory, if you see the little pencil next to your caption, click on the pencil or your caption and start editing. It’ll be prettier in modern browsers with javascript on, but should work for all.

I’ve sort of thrown my hands up in there and said “whatever” on the grand editorial issues here, so keep in mind that if you’ve got the fancier version of auto-refresh running (the one where the gallery keeps growing), you won’t see edits until you refresh it yourself (thereby losing the older captions), and that a caption can change after you’ve favorited it (though I don’t expect substantial changes will occur after a captions been read and voted for very often).

I’m also wondering if there’d be any interest from gallery keepers in the ability to view just the captions you’ve voted on in a scaled back view minus all the widgets for voting and the like. Actually, is anybody other than Zee doing regular updates with IS caps anymore?

If you’ve been wanting to steal, err I mean use, the latest content from IS for your site, or your iGoogle page (if you actually have either) now you can! Just click on the google icon to add it to your google, or the transmit icon to configure and obtain the code to add a widget like the one below to your page.

Inspired by the odd obsession of one of noble competitors, we now have the too inside for anybody’s good LOLchak the Night Stalker, put together by UnReality of Caption This! fame. Am I posting this to mock the competition or because it’s funny? Umm, yes!

Meanwhile, former Brains continue to keep busy. In addition to the usual RiffTrax chicanery, The Giant of Marathon, the fourth (of four?) Film Crew movies by Mike, Kevin and Bill is out. (And like numbers two and three, you can request a free chance to caption it at IS. (Sure it’s more complicated and less instantaneous than other capping catalog systems, but I don’t think accidentally gotten stuck capping a request yet.)

And the Brains continue to make online videos! Huzzah.
