BITSTRIPS

Bitstrips is a funny application  if we use it but it could be irritating if we use to insult or offend other people.

Bistrips is a web or mobile application that allows users to create a cartoon of themselves and their friends as the characters. It was created in 2007 by Jacob Blackstork. Many  facebook users find bistrips irritating. You can create ridiculous situations with your characters hoping it will make everybody laugh. Bistrips has had 11 million downloads.

People can  create an avatar with hairstyles, clothes and other physical attributes to  correspond with their real appeareance. Then  they customize scenarios invented by bistrips in order to generate their own stories and you can choose a caption to reflect what they are feeling and what are they doing.

The creator of the game , Blackstock claims that bistrips is not a game but a new way to interact with your friends. The app may be seen a bit fun but it has other uses, too. It has allegedly  helped motivate children and autistic youngsters.

Thanks Pablo, you have done a fantastic job!!!! Congrats!!!
