xkcd

I know that as I saw this xkcd strip last Friday, it would be received well in some quarters. It looks like I was right.

For me, xkcd has become the new, more intelligent User Friendly, in that almost every geek of any persuasion I know seems to know and like it. Not undeservedly, as Randall Munroe is the best stick figure cartoonist I’ve seen since Matt Feazle, able to put a lot of nuance in just a tilt of a stick figure’s head.
