Thanks for reading.

In all the years of Arthur, King of Time and Space, the one regular complaint that I'm willing but unable myself to do anything about has been the lack of RSS feed. Now someone else has taken care of that for me. In a roundabout way. David Morgan-Mar and the others at The Comic Irregulars have set up Archive Binge. It's a service for webcomics who have offputtingly huge archives, where readers can create their own tailored RSS feeds for having the archives delivered in daily manageable doses. The list of participating webcomics has some of the most popular titles in webcomics culture, as well as two or three I'd never heard of. There's now a button for Archive Binge in the navigation under the cartoon on the index page, and there'll be one in the navigation for every page from now on. You do have to register for the service (but it's the same registry as the Irregular Webcomic! forums, so if you're already there you're golden). And naturally almost anyone who's reading this on the day it's posted will probably be most interested in setting up a feed for one strip daily starting with today's. Unless you'd like to review the archive, in which case knock yourself out. Thanks to David for asking me along.
