ComicalYou Is a New Social Media Service in Which Participants

ComicalYou is a new social media service in which participants create avatars to represent themselves, describe their lives, and interact with one another. All the postings are graphical, presenting the messages in the form of comic panels and strips. The service's software easily converts ideas into whimsical images. The site's creators, Ginny and RJ, believe that ComicalYou will be especially appealing to young people because it is so effective in conveying emotional content with a lighthearted appeal. They, along with a team of six employees, have completed the software, tested it on two dozen of their closest friends, and are eager to open up their site to users.
