Web comics that I think are (usually) worth reading:

• Scary Go Round, by John Allison
• Penny Arcade, written by Jerry Holkins and illustrated by Mike Krahulik
• Achewood, by Chris Onstad
• Over-compensating, by Jeffrey Rowland, author of the (now-web-dead) Wigu
• Questionable Content, by Jeph Jacques
• Diesel Sweeties, by Richard Stevens III
• Copper, by Kazu Kibuishi. It’s worth checking out his other work at boltcity.com
• Perry Bible Fellowship, by Nicholas Gurewitch

I’ve been using a fountain pen for years, but I had never known a fountain-pen-safe waterproof ink — until today. Apparently the folks at the Noodler’s Ink Company have created a few inks that contain cellulose-reactive dyes. No pigment means a happy pen, but waterproof means I can finally use my fountain pen to address envelopes, too. I’ll definitely have to order a couple-few colors and give them a spin.

Riad Lemhachheche at the Oregon State University is conducting a survey on how people use and perceive Wi-Fi networks. Go take the survey.

I’ve switched over to WordPress for keeping up the Rantings page here. I’ll be messing around with settings for a few days, but please email me if you see anything strange. Expect this place to be thin on content for a bit until I get the setup down.

The old rantings are still available.
