Floppy finally flops via Digg

Those pesky coaster replacements have finally been discontinued…at Britian’s largest retailer at least. When will U.S. retailers see the light? It only took a couple of years for the Betamax to die for all practical purposes. The demise of the floppy is like watching fossilization in action.

Interview: Scott McCloud

Posted on January 26, 2007 by Kreg Steppe

Scott McCloud is an Writer, Author and Web Comic artist.

Scott was kind enough to give me an interview as he was on a stop on his speaking tour. He and his family are traveling for 1 year on the road on a Mini Van on a 50 state tour!

I caught up with him at Winthrop University in my home town of Rock Hill, SC. I attended his scheduled talk which I thoroughly enjoyed and would highly recommend. In this interview I talked to him about Webcomics, Experimental Comics, He and his families love for all things Apple, and I Attack him about the Hulk Movie! (Which I kinda liked)

To find out more about Him visit ScottMcCloud.com and there you can find links to their 50 State Tour! There you will find links to their blog, video blogs, and podcasts.
