And it was written on the fourth day, Strange didst procrastinate at work.<P>Hey, folks -- first lemme get the usual stuff outta the way and tell you (whoever's reading this tripe) how much I dig Keenspot and Keenspace. Even when I don't "get" some of the comics, it's cool to see that folks are given real opportunity to rant, show off, and/or just draw.<P>Okay, now for my question -- when you go to keenspace.com and look at the list of comics, there seems to be absolutely no order to it whatsoever. Is it chronological based on when the artist signed up? Is it in order of popularity? (I find that difficult to fathom, actually. Forget I asked that one.) Or is it deliberately random?<P>Also, I may have been hallucinating (mmm, tasty frog), but I swear a couple comics showed up twice on the list.<P>Have you guys considered re-ordering the page into either alphabetical order or categorizing the comics somehow? At the moment, I rely on word of mouth or links to take me to new, exciting comics -- and while that's a GOOD thing in one sense (word of mouth is the best advertising), it does make it difficult for the newest comics to be noticed.<P>Just my $.02 for the musing.<P>--Somebody Strange, who will soon be presenting
"Vicious Lies"
to a vast and appreciative audience
or at least a couple chuckleheads killing time.<P>

The list is randomized, each time you load the list, it should load in a different order. If a comic did appear twice, it'd be a bug, but hell, with like 700 strips listed, would it really matter?<P>------------------

Yeah, I've noticed some repeat comics, too. The apparently defunct "Blue Wasabi" springs to mind.<P>------------------
