Why not use a comic strip to introduce a topic or put across a key message? The above was created using toonlet, who describe their site as ‘webcomic blogging in minutes’. It’s very quick and easy to create. Once you’ve registered you’re presented with a blank comic strip template with text and speech boxes that you type directly into. You can either create your own character from a range of provided body parts and props, or choose an existing character, which often has been drawn to portray different moods.

When you’ve finished your cartoon you can embed it into your blog post/ website or share it via email. Or, if you create lots of comics people can subscribe to your feed.

Toonlet is one of many free comic-creating resources. You may also like to try these as featured by Mashable…
