We created a short series of cartoons about famous people being bloggers, an idea we might well revisit in future. You might have already seen If Robinson Crusoe was a blogger. We'll run another cartoon from this series each day for the rest of this week.

This cartoon shows the constant battle between the pirates and the lawyers, with the legal team balancing on the end of the download bar, with space running out. It was scripted by Duncan.

Tuesday, 15 April 2008 Posted by Sean McManus
This cartoon is from a 2006 issue of our newsletter, when Google was being heavily criticised for working with the Chinese government to filter search results. With much unrest surrounding the Olympics in China and Google still a powerful news source, the cartoon's as topical as ever.

I'm not a massive gamer, but I had a great weekend playing Portal to completion with a friend a few weeks back, and it inspired this cartoon idea...
