The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage

Wednesday 12 December 2012

Further to the recent menion of Ada Lovelace, I stumbled upon a webcomic called 2D Goggles or The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage, which, surprisingly, contains Ada Lovelace.

Very much a steampunk style story, it features Ada Lovelace and Charles Babbage in a highly irregular webcomic* where the dynamic duo fight crime**.

Also features a supporting cast of Isambard Kingdom Brunel, Queen Elizabeth, the Duke of Wellington, and the Duke of Wellington's horse, Copehagen.

Oh, and the Difference Engine***





* With footnotes

** For a given value of crime, where crime equals street musicians or poetry.

*** The Analytical Engine actually.  One the size of a building.
