http://xkcd.com "A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language" ''One-dimensional people with multidimensional minds'' Possibly the geekiest (http://xkcd.com/c244.html) webcomic in wide circulation. It has interesting ideas about spam prevention (http://xkcd.com/c233.html), among other things. http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/marketing_interview.png ---- I have a hard time reading this comic. Each time I want to scream like the bene gesserit witch "get out of my mind!!!". Seriously though, I envision this comic with little strips all over IT shops and CS buildings in the near future. Also, the one I keep up by my computer is this: http://xkcd.com/292/ -- LayneThomas There are actually printouts of comics on a few profs doors at my university. -- JamieArseneault ---- As a math teacher, I particularly enjoy this one: http://xkcd.com/135/ -- PaulMiller ---- the ultimate XkCd ever: http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/exploits_of_a_mom.png That says what XkCd is all about, in a nutshell... ''I use that in one of my university database lectures.'' -- DaveVoorhis ---- '''Spirit''' http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/spirit.png ---- fan-art reprise: http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kx3mdkFpEG1qb06rbo1_500.png ---- Another rebuttal (from the unmanned spaceflight community itself): http://zeroplayer.com/images/stuff/spiritRebuttal.png http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/index.php?showtopic=6291&st=915&start=915 Another fan art: "Readers Digest" published a cartooney version of the Spirit & Endeavor missions... ...with a slightly more emotional robot going "I think I can I think I can" as it chugged up a rise. ---- New cartoons every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
