- hbweb500, on 10/12/2007, -1/+69Or that Digg and Flickr appear to be wearing either burlap sacks or tan skirts...
- cr125er, on 10/12/2007, -5/+57We we still on for lunch?
Is his first name We or is someone retarded? - kbandy, on 10/12/2007, -3/+49Does anyone find it funny that the flickr guys shirt only says "lickr"??
- contradictator, on 10/12/2007, -4/+49Obviously the "We" already made it to the front page once, but someone re-submitted it.
- Tordenflesk, on 10/12/2007, -3/+29Common, we all kow Myspace-dude is a fat middle-aged dude who tries got the "teh ch1xXx"
- ndiderrich, on 10/12/2007, -3/+26Myspace dude should've been wearing glasses with emo styled hair with skin tight jeans.
- wayniethep00p, on 10/12/2007, -5/+28Exactly what I expected but it made me laugh out loud nonetheless. Spot on!!
I've always imagined flickr w/ square frame Prada glasses though. - PlJack, on 10/12/2007, -12/+30Now that's why I love EL. Frigging hilarious comic today.
- staffell, on 10/12/2007, -2/+18I always pictured the personification of myspace as a lot younger and more emo than that.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -5/+18@virak
Nice one man.

- flamingmb, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13*****, I guess my mind was thinking "potato" but my hands were thinking "potatoES"

Never playing Pacman again... - ahill7, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10At least he's not trying to solicit minors.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Dan Quayle?!

I guess this is the predecessor of today's comic strip. It still made me laugh. - iSamurai, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Because the second one's a dupe
- RoboPimp3000, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10The guy's a great illustrator, and I know how much effort it takes to produce a a regular comic, so I'm not gonna knock him too bad. But comedy just doesn't seem to be his thing. He makes obvious jokes (Myspace is slow, WoW players are addicted) that pander to his target audience (geeks). It's the Everybody Loves Raymond of comic strips. I'll give him credit cause he seems to get a lot of hits to his website. But the joke's on him because geeks don't click on ads.
He should just make every comic about digg. That will guarantee him a front-page article on digg every day. - randomgeek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7While it isn't really Web 2.0 I hear Google can answer a lot of questions if you ask politely.
- drgordonfreeman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Depends on your definition of Web 2.0. For me it has a lot more to do with user-generated content than a particular technology.
- imightbewrong, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7not gonna lie before i finished reading it the "myspace" character caught my eye and i though to myself that better be Myspace...it was
lol
great post!! - raindogmx, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10@Virak THE GREATEST! hahaha digg!
- bioskope, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7dude dont u get it , his attire reflects on the webpage design skills of the myspace lot.
a macabre combination of colours - Mullinsmcd, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Heres another one personifying our 2.0 favs
http://www.myextralife.com/archive.php?date=2007-01-12 - Mootabolife, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I would have found it more funny had they said flickr, and someone got sued.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7It's still up?
- alej744, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6... meh.
Not funny. - herrshuster, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5and shiny tables! don't forget the shiny tables!
- Pirate45, on 10/12/2007, -7/+11Wow thanks for digging me down, people. Excuse me for wanting to learn something new and ask for opinions.
- Pyloff, on 10/12/2007, -6/+10Hate to break it to you but that didn't make any sense. Not to mention it wasn't funny.
- HanSolo69, on 10/12/2007, -4/+7wow....just...wow...that was...that was really, really, with out a doubt one of the most inane things i've ever seen.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5It's still up.. click the link.
- virtualball, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Web 2.0 is a term for many things, amog these are simple layouts, ajax, user-generated content, a singular purpose, etc.
Facebook belongs under that catagory. - deadaluspark, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4you dont have to go to school to know when ***** isnt funny, man.
when you see something that is as completely idiotic as this strip (which somehow seems to be the only comic that makes it to the frontpage ever. despite much geekier/funnier comics existing.), its pretty hard to NOT know that its NOT funny.
whats worse is....
...im ***** stoned, and that sure makes those ***** cartoons on adult swim way funnier...
so if being high cant make this comic funny, then it isnt funny. period. - JuliusErving, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Ah, MySpace.. great depiction of a horrible site.
- ncloverbrown, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4
That was the lamest comic ever. Seriously, as pointed out above that could have applied to any three companies. maybe it was Microsoft, IBM and 'wacky' Google.
Diggers are sooo self-masturbatory. Anything that might even hint at Digg, and all the fanboys digg it up, and mutually jerk themselves off.
lame - drunkboxer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2God "Web 2.0" has meaning! Let me go ahead and tell you how much meaning it has; not a made up term at all!
In fact, its more like "Web two point blow." Yeah I went there; I'll be here all week. - NeoRicen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Inaccurate, digg should be a 13 year old dweep ranting on about how great the Wii is.
;) - hattrick35, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Pacman is... FOZZY BEAR! How could I have been so foolish?
- LoganT, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Holy *****, that was the funniest thing I've ever seen.
- meshman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"They're all just websites with different functions to me. "
That's exactly what it is. It doesn't involve anything new in design technologies, delivery platforms, development languages or anything to do with web specifications at all. It's vaporware. Look up the Web 2.0 color palette. Same HTML specs we always use. - MotionAesthetic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1jerkcity also has a well planned story arc, to top off the dry deadpan wit
- sikosmurf, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Yes, the original is still up, but I know if I'm at work, many sites are blocked that I can easily get to with duggmirror; perhaps this is one of those times.
- kutza, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1All mirrors and site dead :(.
- CrushThemTorg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Point of order: Isn't self-masturbatory redundant?
Oh, and the comic. I sort of forgot about it because it lacked – whaddya call it? Funny.
Honestly I wish the Web 2.0 hype would die down, so people could realize that it's the standard, not the exception. At least in a normative sense. - concertina, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Agreed. jerkcity is a gazillion times funnier. extralife is as subtle as a comedic sledgehammer, and just as boring.
- spvaland, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4Unfortunately.
