• I had the chance to meet Craig Schwartz and the other creators of Toonlet at their Maker’s Faire table on Saturday.  They seem really energized about their software and had some interesting ideas about how it might be used by existing webcartoonists to enhance their forums by giving fans access to their characters so they can respond to the latest strip and to each other. Commentary through comics? Could be cool.
