I've sometimes gotten emailed replies to my comments months after a comic ran, so people do appear to read the older comments now and then.

The camera is not too bad for a cameraphone, but it's crap for a camera.

Even fans of LBS (Locally-owned BookSellers) have to appreciate the success of these big chains at promoting book-buying. They organize books topically, which does make it harder to find a specific book, but facilitates browsing. I assume the system is market-driven - the books are arranged in a way that maximizes sales. And their bookstores are the kind of place people want to go to. Makes sense to model the local library on a successful model. Incidentally, does anyone read posts this late after the comic ran??? @ Widsith: I think it’s the influence of Barnes & Noble/Borders.
