Things have been a bit slow on Jungle Fire front.
The single biggest reason, perhaps even the singular reason, is that
my time has been occupied, almost exclusively, with helping getting the infrastructure ready for what is now
crackle.com. I was hired as a senior systems engineer for grouper.com, while the company was in the midst of transitioning to a new type of business, business model, and name.
The first couple of weeks were fairly low key, but when our new datacenter space was ready for our deployment, all of myself and my coworkers began almost literally living in the new datacenter. We have worked, sometimes far past midnight, sometimes on the weekends, sometimes on weekends far past midnight, to build from scratch a fairly large-scale, fully buzzword-compliant back-end infrastructure. In a very short amount of time.
Making crackle.com happen has been occupying my time.
We have always maintained that we, the creators of Jungle Fire, are equal in our contributions to Jungle Fire. That Jungle Fire would not exist without the both of us. Unfortunately this means that when one of us is out of commission for a length of time, Jungle Fire doesn't happen. And so the comic has been on hold for a time now.
Yesterday crackle.com was finally launched.
It will take a little bit of time, hopefully not too long, for both of us to gather wits and pull our brains back together, but the hardest part is now over. And when we're centered once more, Jungle Fire will continue.
Rawr.
