There are a lot of web comics that I keep up with that have very odd publishing schedules. Some publish one day a week, some publish Tuesdays and Thursdays, some publish Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Some publish completely randomly. I use Firefox to manage it all.

Internet Explorer probably does this too, but a.) I’m on a Mac and b.) even if I wasn’t, there aren’t enough Wild Berry Skittles on the planet to bribe me to use Internet Explorer.

Yeah, I like Wild Berry Skittles. A lot.

In Firefox, I have a folder of bookmarks for each day of the week plus one called Daily. Each morning, I open the day’s folder and check the comics, news and other items that interest me. The folder goes up on the Bookmarks toolbar for easy access, thusly:

1. Click Bookmarks -> Organize Bookmarks or press Shift-Cmd-B (Shift-Ctrl-B on PC). Yeah, I write instructions from a Mac perspective. After 15 years of the other way around, it’s payback time.
2. Click the Bookmarks Toolbar entry on the left to select it. That’s where the folders are going.
3. Right click and choose New Folder or go up to the gear icon, click it and choose New Folder.
4. Create a folder called Days – or whatever suits you – that will contain the folders for each day of the week.
5. Click that new folder to select, then repeat step three for each day of the week and one called Daily.
6. Start populating each folder with bookmarks.

That’s all there is to it. Organization, FTW.

So, now I have to learn ComicPress. While I’m doing that (and marveling at how bad the code is compared to Thesis – sorry, but it’s true), I’m also working on the strip itself and the design of the site. Add that to my work on The Big Book of Spam, my own blog, Kids and Comics and my Hectic Studios relaunch… it’s a lot to do. Since Mediocre Web Comic is the newest thing, it gets lowest priority.

Still, I’m excited about it, so that’s motivation enough to get those other projects finished or caught up so I can do more here. I’m not going to give the standard “check back soon for updates!” line because let’s be honest, nobody is going to check back for updates. Instead, follow me on Twitter, and I’ll tell you when there’s updates – along with news related to the aforementioned projects and my own inane ramblings.
