This is how wordpress oneboxing actually looks.. pretty nice.

I’m not sure why the boingboing folks are not choosing to include an excerpt in the discourse topics generated for blog discussions - the `[Permalink]` text is their choice. On [our](http://community.namati.org/t/we-are-looking-at-gold-and-calling-it-rock/839) [sites](https://forum.kabissa.org/t/20-000-in-bonus-prizes-and-matching-funds-available-from-globalgiving-kabissa-blog/3474?u=tobiaseigen) we do it differently. Maybe it’s because they want to focus on the blog post (for SEO and actual reading) and not the discourse topic?
