It is always important to try something new. What I did today
I was at home an found this new tool. I was trying to figure out ways to provide tutorials that might be fun or marketing that would grab people’s attention. It was a lot of fun and takes a bit of work in the beginning stages. First you have to come up with a set of characters and different versions of those characters to convey mood, etc. Once those characters are created you can pretty much re-use them and develop different stories. There are some limitations to toonlet. You are limited to the images uploaded by contributors. But you can be a contributor too! So if you can draw, toonlet can come in pretty handy. The toonlet you create is automatically posted on the website as a png. You ca save it to your computer by right clicking and “save as” functions. In addition, you can embed it as well. Another limitation is that you cannot have more than one person in a comic cell. This can get frustrating but people who are toonlet comic creators developed a variety of ways to convey person to person interactions. One interesting suchtoonlet cartoon is by an intrepid library technician working in a computer lab. She has a series of comic strips devoted to library techisms and library OZ-isms. She is an interesting character, but I don’t think the cartoon was made for outreach or marketing purposes. I could be wrong

Totally cool! Can’t wait for next weeks strip!
Thanks Kristi! Don’t know when the next one will come out… but I’ll put it on my blog whenever it appears
