Really great seeing an evolution in the way people might interact with media that was originally created for print. I wonder if at some point print will be phased out and offered at a premium price.

Back in the day I did my fair share of comic book collecting. In fact, I once spent an absurd amount of time cataloging my collection on to my janky old-school PC. Of course, after I was about 90% thru the process the hard drive crashed.
After working in the technology industry for a while I began to think that there has to be a better way to engage with comic books. Well, along came Graphic.ly to bring comic book reading and community into the digital age. You can try out the super rough beta by downloading the AIR application at http://graphic.ly/beta/.
Be warned, it is still in very early stages of development, but if you’re passionate about comics you have the opportunity to make the app the best it can be. I’m hoping to spend some time with it myself.
