Calvin & Hobbes RSS Feed
I recently stumbled upon Tapestry. I like the idea — RSS feeds for comics. (In particular the feed for Dilbert.)

Of course, it’s totally dependent upon how the official site builds their URLs, and if they ever change that, expect this to break as well. The code to create it was remarkably simple, but if anyone is interested, you can snag it here:
