xkcd comic extras

xkcd (http://www.xkcd.com/) is a cool web-only comic. It claims to be "A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language." It's good. It's offbeat. It also has a little extra bonus content for each content.

The comic image has an HTML title tag applied. If you mouse over the comic, you'll get the creator's comments on the subject at hand. I know that Firefox will show the title if you hover over the comic, unclear if IE does. Even in Firefox, you usually don't get the entire text since Firefox usually limits the amount of the title it will show. If you want the full comment, you need to right-click on the page (but not on the image) and View Source. You can then look in there for the entire comment. It's usually worth it.

It appears that the titles do get shown correctly in IE, but they are truncated in Firefox. I've added a separate tip on how to get Firefox to show the entire title when you hover over the image: http://www.tipstrs.com/tip/2884/Showing-long-titles-and-tooltips-in-Firefox
