A buddy of mine who lives in DC has been listing the webcomics he reads on his blog. He's up to 8 pages of lists. Obviously, he's more plugged in than I am.
Comic strips - part 1
Comic strips - part 2
Comic strips - part 3
Comic strips - part 4 - he wanders into the syndicated strips he reads here.
Comic strips - part 5
Comic strips - part 6
Comic strips - part 7
Comic strips - part 8
and he took in Short Animation Oscar nominees just for good measure.

Nina Paley interview done by local blogger online now
Caroline Small's interview with Nina Paley is up at tcj.com, with part 2 now up as well. Caro, as I've never called her, joined HU last month, and one can frequently find her lurking around cartoonist events in DC, although she always claims she's there for her cousin. Well, now the truth is out.

Is Second Life animation?
