T sez, "OhNoRobot is a search engine for the words in webcomics that works off distributed volunteer transcription, collecting the efforts of fans and cartoonists alike to build its database. In a few short weeks, even with the distractions of the holiday season, it's grown to 15,000 transcriptions of over 180 series."
If you make a comic and put it on the Web, it's because you want that comic to be read. And if a comic deserves to be read, it deserves to be found. Especially by people who are looking for something like it. It deserves to be searched. If it can't be searched, a feeling of futility condenses in the air.
And webcomics have a serious searchability deficit.
Google is comics-illiterate.
(Thanks, T!)
