XKCD

If you read digg or reddit you’ve heard of XKCD. It’s that cool web-comic with a geek slant. Or, that’s what I thought it was. Turns out it’s much more.
Realizing that this sounds lame, I’m going to go ahead and say that this guy’s work is no less than genius. He writes web-comics that elicit an emotional response from me. That’s talent.
He actually comments a lot on love, religion, and other very serious topics. It’s incredible what he’s able to do with so little space and time.
Anyway, don’t just click the link and read a couple. That doesn’t work. When you have a moment, go to the archives and spend some time there. You’ll be amazed.

Don’t forget to read the image titles. It often fills in a bit of out-of-context information. The title text for this comic, for instance, is “They’re standing at the lip of the canyon, which isn’t clear at all.”

this is one of my “regular” strips, meaning that I check it three times each week. Here are some of my recent favorites:

Enjoy.

Not being a programmer, there are a few I don’t get. But most I do, and they are hilarious.
