Assembled, Zipped, Transferred and Downloaded: Digital News

By Tom Spurgeon

* the King-Cat site is being re-designed.

* GoComics.com launched three this week: WuMo, Santa Vs. Dracula and Understanding Chaos.

* so a bunch of Image books are now available on Google Play. This is the sentence where I should tell you what that means, but I'm not sure I can. I think that's a fairly sizable downloading platform that's kind of fussed itself into various changes as that marketplace has changed and Google's strategy has chased after those changes. At any rate, my general theory that trying everything right now is the best strategy holds here.

* there's a really good Gary Tyrrell post here where he talks to Matt Bors about his gig at Medium and then pivots and talks about recent Internet discussion regarding a Penny Arcade job opening that has raised some eyebrows. I don't really have an opinion on that latter one. I mean, of course, I believe everyone should be paid according to their skill set and contributions rather than exploited because a cultural element to a job allows for it, but I can't tell if that kind of leveraging is what is going on here or if this is simply the usual "we pay crappy" thing a lot of small businesses do.

* finally, Dylan Horrocks has been going a bit crazy with the Magic Pen updates, if you haven't checked that one for a while.
