We should create a URI standard for that; xkcd://927

Should be simple enough: https://github.com/chungy/xkcd-uri

Well that's jinxed it.

Let me propose the xkcd2 scheme, to be used like xkcd2:927, because who really needs those two slashes?!

My proposal: xkcd3, works as xkcd3:927 AND xkcd3://927

And that's why Linux desktop is going nowhere.

hi, what about xkcd4:ⅽⅿⅹⅹⅶⅹ or xkcd5:٩٢٧ (note: may not appear in correct reading order due to technical limitations)

I propose a browser powered by deep machine learning that lets you just write 927 and automatically figures out that it refers to an XKCD by inferring the context from looking at the content on the rest of the page.
