comicstripsWith the massive exodus towards online publishing, many people hardly reach for the newspaper these days. If there's one thing I truly miss from the newspaper, it would be reading the comic strips.

There's something magical about comic strips that seems to lighten your day and make you feel good. There's certainly something to be said about starting your day with a bit of humor.

I figured that we're so immersed in the Internet that it would be cool to compile a list of funny strips related to web design, the Internet and of course blogging.

Take a few minutes from your busy day to relax, have some fun and see how many of these situations relate to you... :)
