This presentation focuses primarily on how folks like me make money giving our stuff away on the web.

I currently work full-time as a cartoonist, writing, drawing, and coloring Schlock Mercenary, as well as doing comics for assorted corporate clients. I quit my job for Novell, where I was the Collaboration Product Line Manager, in September of 2004. And while we're on the subject of things I used to do, I used to be on the Board of Directors at Sanctus Records, an independent record label I co-founded, and which I've since sold and watched disintegrate under the misministrations of those I turned it over to. I used to dabble in web design, but I'm so far behind the cutting edge these days there's no point in even bringing up what I used to do.
