History of Comic Life :D
Plasq is a worldwide limited liability company which began in Melbourne, Australia, but is now based in the United States; however its employees are scattered in several different countries. It was started by Cris Pearson and Keith Lang. The company is almost entirely internet based, as the employees are so far apart and must communicate via chat rooms. Additionally, all of their products are sold exclusively online, except for Comic Life, which can also be purchased in a boxed edition from Freeverse. The company originally focused on developing audio related software, although they have since released many other genres of software. In early 2010, Pearson and Lang left plasq to start Skitch, Inc, the company that currently develops the Skitch screenshot markup software.
