bLaugh wants to make the blogosphere a funnier place

Friendster receives the bLaugh nod.

Everyone can use a good laugh now and then, and bloggers are no exception. At least that's the philosophy behind bLaugh, the "(un)Official Comic of the Blogosphere."

"bLaugh is already being called a… 'MAD Magazine for the Blogosphere,'" the web site states. "But since our moms are the ones who said that, it doesn’t really count. What us, worry?"

With Chris Pirillo serving as writer and Brad Fitzpatrick as artist, the blogosphere's A-list stars and sites are subject to attack. So far comics have featured Steve Rubel, TechCrunch and Jeff Jarvis.

Launched at the end of June, GoDaddy-sponsored bLaugh allows readers to share the comics by providing HTML code with every cartoon for reposting. RSS feeds keep fans in the loop.

So bloggers, beware.

"If you blog, or your name (brand) is getting tossed around in the blogosphere, you’re on our radar."
