Sharon Clay on toolet.com

In week one of October, Sharon Clay reviewed a comic strip tool called Toonlet. Within her post she include a detailed video tutorial highlighting the features of this - still in beta - tool. Follow this link to The Sharon Clay Chronicles. Thank you for sharing this, Sharon!




From Sharon's blog:

WWW.TOONLET.COM is a fun, exciting, and creative web2.0 tool which allows the registered user to create comic strip characters and insert them into their very own comic. I learned that even the most limited artist can design a comic with a professional appeal for free. I think this tool will help inspire my students to write and I am looking forward to introducing my class to this program.
