The webcomic xkcd was recently featured on a popular tech website which I frequent. The author spoke at mit about his life and writing (and was interuppted by students), so I started reading the comic. Man, is it good.
I just started reading them, and got lots of the way through. Then I realized that there is a second level of awesome, in the img alt text tags. And then I read most of them again.
Some of my favs, in no particular order:
- http://xkcd.com/c181.html - Interweb Net Codes!
- http://xkcd.com/c113.html - Zeta Functions 4 Pres!
- http://xkcd.com/c128.html - :-(
- http://xkcd.com/c132.html - 4 d3w4rd

http://xkcd.com/c55.html - incorporation of the identity matrix = sweet.
In that comic, the Fourier integral is more funny. Its like, its not convergent.
