Distractions

Monday was a day when nothing useful (other than delivering mail) got done. Even though I had an imperative need to 1) write up a description of Potlatch's Book of Honor (which I still need to finish), 2) process a mass-load of graphics files and 3) finish cleaning the kitchen and start cleaning the loft ... instead I spent a considerable chunk of Monday night looking for good webcomic review sites.

I have about a dozen each of daily, triweekly and weekly webcomics that I follow, but it's time to add some more. I hope to have an encyclopedic knowledge of them before the San Diego ComiCon so that THIS time when I meet various creators I actually know what they're talking about.

The first two hits on a google search for "webcomic review" are for sites that apparently stopped updating more than six months ago (an eternity in webcomic time). the third hit is for a LiveJournal account:

3) The Watchtower of Destruction http://theferrett.livejournal.com/tag/webcomic+review

which is specifically aimed at lesser known comics.

and then I spent the next four hours compulsively hitting "next"...

Tuesday was far more productive - finished the first graphics files project, made major headway in the kitchen, not really happy with the Book of Honor writeup yet.

Today I promise NOT to spend the whole time on LiveJournal and webcomics...
