When I first started
learning to read, my primary motivation was to gain the ability to read
the comics in my local paper. I had no idea at that time that there
were so many comics in the world. Now I know that there are comics all
over the Web, but who has time to go to each site each day and read the
latest strip? Thanks to the world of open source software, you can
gather all your favorite comics on one page automatically, ready for
you to read each morning.
