Breadpig Blog: Purveyor & Publisher of All Things Geek — Buzz

The book is out - get it here! Here's the New York Times article. The breadpig is thrilled to be working with xkcd on this venture and we're expecting the book to hit the virtual shelves of the xkcd store this summer. If you'd like to be notified, sign up for the breadpig mailing list (your information will not be sold, bartered, or used for any kind of evil).

To celebrate Katee Sackoff's 29th birthday yesterday, TCritic did a BSG shirt rundown. Props to Bo for the shoutout in the comments. Got nothing to give that special skinjob in your life?
