Dan Roam: solving problems with pictures

Here’s a great talk by Dan Roam about how you can solve any problem by a “back of the napkin” sketch. The entire video is worth watching, but if you’re short on time, the first 6 minutes are especially significant.

Favorite quote: “We are fundamentally visual creatures”. He also talks about how we all know how to draw before we know how to read/write, but somehow we stop drawing as we grow up.

A lot of stuff he says resonates with us. And this is why we do what we do: we want to help people express themselves visually. Hmm… would “Get visual!” be a nice tagline?
