MegaTokyo: Piro goes it full-time
Topic: Arts 8:26 pm EST, Nov  6, 2002

] Ok, so. I am now doing Megatokyo full time. Technically,
] I now work for all of you. A lot of people have commented
] on how great it would be if I could ever quit my day job
] and do Megatokyo full time. Well, now we'll get to see if
] hey are right. First, lets talk about what will change
] around here, now that the site has my undivided
] attention.

I have blogged MegaTokyo before. I'm a big webcomic junkie.

It appears Piro got laied off from his job. Common problem among many people the past year or two, myself included. He is now trying to devote himself full-time to doing his webcomic.

I urge his users to support him. Running a website or any other creative envenour is a very hard, time consuming, and expensive thing to do. It takes a lot of energy and love. As you browse all those little websites out there you like, remember that we have to find a way for the community that visits these websites to fund their operation and development. Its the big challenge ahead of us if we do not want to be limited to big media that produces content solely for the lowest common denominator. Little media needs the support of its user community in order to function and grow.

MemeStreams is in a similar situation...

Remember: Feed your artists or you will have no art. Feed your coders, or you will have no code. MTV will be all you will have left in the end if you do not take it upon yourself to support the little e.
