In the past (when appropriate) I often used comic techniques to make ideas stick where a “spec” wouldn’t.

It seems like the idea broke down a little bit towards the end though, with the persona part. The other pages give you an idea of what the technique is about at a glance. The persona one could have more going on graphically, perhaps a representation of the different parts of a persona, or where they come from?

A nice piece!

Years ago I experimented with
what I called “software engineering comix”
using a now-defunct Mac program called
Comic Strip Factory. I did seven of them, with
one idea per strip.. the opposite of Dan’s compressed
insight, but likewise aimed at folks who think visually.

As an online instructor, I have used cartoons to illustrate complex technical concepts and have been fairly successful in conveying my thoughts. Very well done Don.
