Jeff Rowland reads the Terms of Service for MySpace.com and comes up with a TOS of his own. (Thanks to Lore for the link)

I've never hung out with the DC Conspiracy group (DC cartoonists) but using a bar as a space to create mini-comics: awesomely geeky! 

Tom Spurgeon is tracking the press coverage of TCJ's story that Charles Brownstein was the perpetrator of the alleged assault on Taki Soma.  UPDATE: CBR's Rich Johnson has some comments on the case and posts a statement from Charles Brownstein.  (There's also a long thread on the matter at their forums.)  Newsarama also has an article on it with a link to the redacted polic report.

A few recent user blog posts I wanted to draw to everyone's attention:

• WilliamG wrote a post on why longform comics are an odd fit for the web;
• AlexanderD wrote about Tim Tylor joining his FullStory site: a directory of completed webcomic stories;
• I wrote about Comixpedia's traffic compared to some other blogs and news sites; and
• Keith Quinn wrote about the one year anniversary of his webcomic Local Heroes.
