Third Anniversary!
September 1st, 2008Can you believe it?!? It’s been three years since I began The Crown Prince. And here we are, 182 strips later! I always knew I’d like to see the strip last for a while, but I can’t say with any confidence that I thought I’d get this far. What say we try for another three years?
I’m planning on a few changes with the strip and with the website. Some will happen immediately, while others will happen over the course of the year (and yes, some may never happen at all. Alas).
First: You will likely have noticed the change in the update schedule. For the first time in three years, the strip will update TWICE a week, on Mondays and Fridays. Now don’t get too used to this! I’m trying it out on a very temporary basis because of the current storyline. If it works out well and I can keep it up, great. If not, I’ll go right back to once a week without any hesitation. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Second: I’m planning on adding an RSS feed to the site. Let me know if you would be interested in this feature. The more people who speak up on this, the sooner I’ll make it happen.
Third: Keep your eyes open for some little tidbits here and there on the site. I plan on updating and expanding the Cast page, improving the search engine and a few other little tweaks.
So once again, I’d like to thank you all for sticking around so long. I know some of you have been reading since September 1, 2005 while others started reading last week. I hope you continue to find something in the comic that keeps bringing you back.

A week or two ago I started using google reader as my rss feed, but couldn’t find the feed on your site, except for individual posts. I can’t remember for sure what I did but I think I copy/pasted your home page into the google reader and since them I’m getting rss feeds for your site. This is the link it’s using:

And woo hoo on getting more updates! Good luck with that.

Rachel: Huh? Wazzat? I’ve already got an RSS feed built into the shadowy netherworld of this site and I didn’t know it?
To be fair, I knew ComicPress had the option built in, but I thought I had to enable it or something. (Apparently, I’m not as technical as I would like to believe).
Before I make it official, I encourage all of you readers who happen to use RSS Feeds to try the link Rachel provides above and let me know how it works for you. I tried it just now and it seems just swell, but I thought I’d give people a chance to try it with different platforms, different browsers, etc.
