Tim O'Reilly tweeted out what he called a "compelling" article today, the titular "Five Reasons iPhone vs. Android isn't Mac vs Windows" by Mark Sigal. Having read the article I countered by tweeting that I thought the article was "biased" and "unbalanced". Tim, in turn, was gracious enough to tweet...

The Dark went live on the Playstation Digital Comics network last week and my good friend Lee was kind enough to tweet me these shots of the comic up and running on his PSP!

I heard from Harry at Markosia that the book has been doing very well indeed in terms of downloads and the guys at Sony have tweeted me recently to say there has been a lot of positive fan feedback. Great news!

If you’ve got a PSP and you have downloaded the book, I’d love to know what you think.

PSP_covers-v2After months of of top-secret work behind the scenes, we can finally reveal that The Dark has a new digital home … the Sony Playstation Digital Comics Network.

As of March 25th The Dark will available for download in four installments to your PSP. All of the installments have the same release date, so you will be able to pick up the equivalent of the entire trade from day one.The Dark is taking  pride of place alongside Markosia’s critically acclaimed “Dark Mists” as the first Markosia titles to launch on the platform. Markosia were also able to reveal today that The Dark is also one of two Markosia titles that have been signed up exclusively by Sony for the platform!

‘These are exciting times for us,’ says publisher Harry Markos, ‘there is no denying that the digital comic is here to stay and it will have a major say over the next year or two. We are delighted to be partnering with Sony in this venture and from what I have seen so far; this is very much an exciting step forward. The graphics look amazing on PSP, crystal clear and surprisingly user-friendly thanks to the Autoflow feature.’

For those who remember the early days of “The Dark” as a project, digital was always a key medium for us, and I’m delighted that Sony have put their weight behind us by signing the project exclusively.

I’ll see you all on the Playstation forums!
