In 2009, Randall created two extra comics after a special request from IBM's A Smarter Planet blog (now defunct, archive). The website now redirects to IBM's Think blog's homepage. They are not part of the regular numbered series of comics, but both of them used to be featured on xkcd.com/asmarterplanet (now defunct, archive), where each comic on that page linked to their respective blog posts on IBM's site. The two blog posts were called "Building a Smarter Planet… for Squirrels" (now defunct, archive) and "Smarter(?) Health Care" (now defunct, archive).
