We've woken up, but we still need a cure to Insomnia The news broke several days ago now that Insomnia Publications had released all of its creators from their contracts. Everyone received a short, polite email from publisher Crawford Coutts, and thus ended many weeks of speculation, worry, and countless threats of violence. The rumour mill continues to...
Wake up Insomnia Publications - It's the Sleepless... This is blog post asking for your support for a project that I'm involved in. I have written lots of blog posts like this. I'm normally shilling something, a new grahic novel, a new web site, or something else that I've created and now I'm hoping that you'll adore. I normally want your money too, as...
Chris vs. Five Reasons iPhone vs. Android isn't Mac... 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.
