story telling and pictures

Text + picture in the box are moved from my other blog[1]!

I was searching German testing blogs - during this I found Frank Westphals blog and there I read some good things about story telling (btw: this is the Maytag repairman which Andy Goodman talks about in the podcast) and visual aspects of stories.

As Goodman tells: story telling is powerful, because of:

  • the history as a species, that has made us a story telling people since 10000s of years
  • our identity, which is comprised of stories – literally who you are is just a group of stories
  • there are the cultures that we belong to, which are just stories we all agree are true
  • stories help us remember better
So, a good story will catch you or you will not continue reading. So I thought why not include more pictures? This will help you to remember the stories better. I will think of other ideas to tell you even better stories.
I do not (yet) know if I am a good painter or not. But I will try to learn this skill also (have just ordered a book to help me), by adding more pictures to the stories. I am no Picasso, so you will see in the following picture only copy and paste Smile.gif

I think the picture is self explaining, or? You see, what I have done since yesterday evening.

What does the sign ? mean in the picture? Well, I have some plans already for today, but you never know, what will happen next.
