Tumblr’s Storyboard was a daily read for many Mashable editors, so we’re offering to publish some of its planned stories in the wake of its shut-down.
This was going to be my first piece for...
jessicasuarez:
A week or so ago I turned in my first piece for Storyboard, a profile of Chris Gethard and The Chris Gethard Show. Storyboard shut down last night. I was excited about writing my first long feature piece in two years, and excited to write a profile of a comedy show where there are stunts and fart jokes and dildos, but where the audience asks questions on suicide and...
Tumblr Shuts Down Storyboard 'For Now,' Says... →
baddeal:
We’re sad to hear this news, as Storyboard was a brilliant experiment in journalism and we hope it returns soon. It’s part of what separated Tumblr from the rest of the social media and blogging community; Storyboard was curated and it was editorial. It was a coherent and human voice that Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter all lacked and still lack.
Storyboard was an effort to give a...

What's up with Storyboard?
So many questions! Well just one answer, for now: Storyboard will continue publishing through this Friday, 4/12.

I Am Writing This Blog Post for Free
veblenesquegorge:
I’m sure by now every freelance writer in America has read the post by Nate Thayer documenting his exchange with an editor at The Atlantic, who asked him to write 1,200 words for free. It looked completely familiar to me. Examples: I’ve let the Huffington Post, against every fiber of my being, reprint materials I’ve written for other publications for free; The New York Times...

Why Tumblr's next Storyboard post should be a...
quartey:
Graphics journalism is exactly what it sounds like - words and images united with journalistic process. It’s an emerging form of visual storytelling, and with it’s rich visual culture, Tumblr (and specifically, Storyboard - Tumblr’s home for original feature content) is perfectly positioned to take advantage of the medium as it slowly becomes mainstream.
Tumblr could do for comics...
