You have to check out this posting on The Amateur Gourmet.
It’s one of the best blog postings I’ve ever seen. (Thank you Leslie Carol Roberts for telling me about it.)
Here are other examples of photo storytelling that shows the power of the medium:

I love playing with Comic Life, but hadn't thought of using it for my blog. Great! And definitely just begging to be stolen!
I agree that this format works best when it's kept short. Not every reader is willing to follow comics for too long.

I guess I'm not enough of a foodie to appreciate the posting. I lost interest after the first "page" of comic stuff. And a shame all the text is in the graphic - it'd be hard to find it later via a web search.
Posted by: Mark Dalrymple | Nov 6, 2006 7:12:23 AM
Absolutely brilliant. And begging to be stolen.

Wow, that is pretty cool! He must have spent FOREVER putting together the artwork and pictures (let alone commentary) to do that. Thanks for deviating from the usual a little and posting this!

Nice Blog, yes, good Link :)

Comic Life is a great app, isn't it? Apple's been bundling it with the Mac Mini and the iMacs for some time now.

Great use of visuals to tell the story — it certainly stands out!
And heya, Guy, I must've been hibernating... since when did your blog's name become How to Change the World? I just noticed it in my RSS reader!
Posted by: Torley | Nov 4, 2006 2:46:42 PM
Clever, insprired and so funny, indeed !
Just to mention that the app. used to create this photo storytelling is "Comic Life" from Plasq.
An awesome tool all in drag and drop actions with a lot of features to personalize your work.
I've been using it for personnal needs (I create comics books for familly and friends as presents).
It's such a funny way to re-invent stories with your photo library in order to make your characters speak or think far from what they initially spoke or thought ;-)
A lot of clever things on this blog too ! :-)

One of the most creative blog ideas I have seen in a long time.
I had never been to Amateur Gourmet before. Just added it to del.icio.us. :)
Posted by: Nick | Nov 4, 2006 7:57:57 AM
wow, what a brilliant idea. I'm going to have to try it.
