Enough of hows and whys of writing content that makes a difference or lead your readers to an action. Yesterday, while surfing the blogosphere, I chance upon two very creative bloggers who defy convention by creating powerful visual content with minimum words on their blogs. Their blogs really exemplify and put into perspective the meaning of “a picture tells a thousand words“. Let me introduce their blogs here so that you too can enjoy their creative works:

• First is a Singapore girl who calls herself and blogs at The Bitter Stickgirl. The hand-drawn sketches in every posts are so simple yet powerfully conveys her thoughts and ramblings stated in the post title. Most of her posts have no typewritten words, except one or two of them with 2 – 3 sentences.

• Next is a 5-year old kindergarten kid who blogs using voice recognition software (that’s what written on the blog header) at Being Five. It is essentially a comic strip blog and provides some light-hearted moments for me after devouring all the heavy stuff on SEO, SEM, making millions online etc. Enjoy them!
