I'm going to try and update the links more frequently from now on - ten months was too long to go without updating them the first time. Anyway, we lead with comics, fade into blogs, and then into general sites.

Scary Go Round—A brilliant comic from across the pond. As you can see, I kind of modeled some of my style after him. Not to the point of ripping it off, though. I hope. This is the only truth: 2.0 is the ultimate lady, a sexual mermaid who makes my knees be weak like wet paper.

Penny-Arcade—Another smashing comic, the granddaddy of them all. I have no idea why I'm bothering to link to it. If you've somehow found this thing, you've probably found that one. But Frog! you gasp, How are we to know which strip from their amazingly successful five-year run is? Easy. It's this one. The first panel is completely dated and I didn't even care about it when it came out, and the third panel requires previous nollitch of the strip, but, man, that second panel is the greatest.

PVP—More or less the same applies to this as to Penny-Arcade. I think they're two of three most popular web comics (the third being something called MegaTokyo that I've never been able to read more than three installments of). I'm not sure that I have a single favorite strip ever from this comic—Brent talks about coffee a lot and fuck do I like coffee—but this one has that certain juvenile something that I like.

Diesel Sweeties and Sheldon—Diesel Sweeties is probably the hippest of the web comics, and Sheldon is drawn by ND alum Dave Kellett. Dave's strip in the Observer was effing brilliant, but there's no web archive of it, so you'll have to take my word for it. My favorite Diesel Sweeties is this one, although there's a great one about Jesus helping me trick people and being ten ninjas, too. For some reason, the one I've linked to makes me think of 2.0 and myself. I don't know if this means I see myself as a robot or something. It might. I'm kind of weird. Unforunately, Sheldon's archive only goes back 30 days. But there was this great one about Godzilla holding a taco. Oh, man, you had to be there.

Dinosaur comics—Only learned of this recently. God, does it rock.

Journey into History—A comic review blog, one with the good taste enough to review me. Actually, the way JiH works is that you submit your own work, so taste has nothing to do with it. But I've been e-mailing Bob ever since and not only is his site handy for reviews, new comics (since it tends toward more obscure sites) and an interesting comic of its own in development, but he also is a nice guy.

The Perry Bible Fellowship—PBF is an awesome, completely non-sequitor from episode to episode comic that is among the funniest on the web. Highly recommended.

A Lesson is Learned but the Damage is Irreversible—I don't necessarily understand this one, but it is beautiful to look at.

Copper—Another one that's beautiful to look at, this one tends to get all sorts of critical praise. The dude comes out with one comic a month, and it's totally worth the wait.

Tart—One I found through Journey into History, there's only six episodes and the navigation is pretty rudimentary, but the strip itself is hilarious. This is what Lissa would be like if I didn't have this thing where all my characters have to be Good People. It's just a thing I do.

Medium Large—This one will blow your mind - it's by the dude who writes Sally Forth, which I am now forced to look at in a different light. He also writes Drink at Work, which we'll get to later, and which makes much sense.

Goth Bunnies—Another one from JiH, and one whose author said nice things about me, so I said nice things about her, and that went on for a while. The bunnies aren't truly goth, although they can act it, and it's not like anything else on this list, so give it a shot.

The Wrong Band—This one I got from Goth Bunnies girl - see how crazy circular this whole webcomicry thing is? A Seattle band rocks out, causes laughter. Perhaps the only comic I know of with a recovering alcoholic in it.

Witchthorn—Get your Jack Kirby fix here.

Webcomics Examiner—A quarterly look at web comics - reviews, cultural analysis, you know, stuff.

Other comics: Boondocks, Fox Trot, Get Fuzzy, Pearls Before Swine, Peanuts, Doonesbury

Soxaholix—It's like This Modern World meets Call of the Green Monster. A webcomic for Red Sox fans. Awesome.

Call of the Green Monster—Speaking of Call of the Green Monster, this is the Onion tailored directly for Sox fans. Also awesome.

Booklust—The blog by the lady who does Tart, centering around books and her illustration career. Good stuff.

Drink at Work—Just awesome. The dialogues with dad are hilarious.

Clublife—The blog of an NYC bouncer, I actually read through the entire archive of this one. I have never wanted to go to a nightclub less in my life after doing so, and I had no desire to go to one even before reading this site. They sound dreadful.

Comics Curmudgeon—I love very serious conversations about nothing. This guy takes the comics very seriously, especially ones that try to pass themselves off as realistic, like Mary Worth and Apartment 3-G. Also, he hates BC. Good times.

Stacked—Followed a link through Clublife to this guy - the slang drove me nuts for about two visits, now I'm down with it. I just can't try to duplicate it.

Brooklyn Arden—This is my friend Cheryl's blog. She works on the Harry Potter books, and actually got her name in the Half-Blood Prince. This makes her the closest thing to a celebrity I know.

Epiphany—I met Julia and the famous MNP's wedding. She is completely insane for the Cardinals, in a way that almost made me sorry that the Sox never let the Cards lead for any half-inning of the World Series, but not quite.

Fark—A fantastic website. I get a lot of my news from here. I love the Photoshop contests, as 2.0 can tell you, probably more than is healthy. Other good Photoshop stuff can be found at Something Awful, although that site is seldom Safe For Work. Which, of course, does not stop me.

Simply Recipes—Because I like to cook, and her recipes are much easier than Domestic Goddess's.

McSweeney's Internet Tendency—Daily content updates, literary minded, and strange. Sounds like something I would like. McSweeney's Press was founded—I think—by 2.0's favorite author, Dave Eggers. They publish a Quarterly that takes on any variety of forms and is usually awfully entertaining. Also, they run a few community services under their 826Valencia and 826NYC programs. Ah, hell, you can find it all on the site, I'll shut up.

watchmeturn30—This used to be run by a girl named Holly, whom I have barely met but have fond feelings for because I have grilled at her apartment and because she wanted to set me up with some friends of hers before 2.0 and I were dating. Holly turned 30 in February, and passed it along to her friend Amy M., who I've never met. But I'm watching her turn 30, anyway.

White House Briefing—Dan Froomkin writes a news round-up for the Washington Post every day. It's a free sign-up to get into it, and it's a really good news service. In these troubled times, it is important to keep an eye on that asshat, Bush.

Smirking Chimp—Speaking of that asshat, this is an excellent site with news links (often to overseas papers who aren't owned by the Republicans) dedicated to making sure that slippery bastard doesn't get away with anything unnoticed. He'll get away with everything, because he controls the military, but he won't get away with it unnoticed.

Glark—I like their t-shirt designs. I don't actually own any of them, but I think their designs are top-notch. They use American Apparel shirts, which are really comfy, and sweatshop free. 2.0 owns some AA stuff and my Le Tigre shirt is made on their cloth. It's good stuff.

Copacetique—I've gotten some really cool shirts off this site. Ladies have complimented each of them at one time or another. Not random ladies, ladies I know. I don't know if a random lady has ever complimented something I've worn, unsolicited. But I don't need no random lady, anyhow.

Preshrunk—The t-shirt blog, it's quite helpful in finding awesome t-shirts.

Retrocrush—I like kitsch. So does this guy.

Abevigoda.com—Check to see if Abe Vigoda is alive or dead.
