Now this is pretty cool. Scrapblog combines "...the storytelling aspects of scrapbooks and the sharing power of blogs". I haven't tried this service yet but I did have a interest in scrapbooking in a former life but I remain passionate about the power of story with visuals. Using RSS of course, Scrapbloggers can share their creations with one another.

Scrapbooks can be made public or private. I've taken a look at several of the public scrapbooks and I must say that this service is exciting, fun and very promising. Scrapblog allows you to import photos from Flickr and embed your Scrapblog pages in MySpaces pages or your personal blog.

Scrapblog allows you to enhance your scrapblog with rich media so that you can tell your stories in real-time and with engaging visuals. Scrapbook hobbyist from all walks of like would do well to check this service out. Assuming there isn't a to big of a digital divide between traditional scrapbook creators and social publishing aspects of Scapblog using RSS and blog publishing, there should a very bright future in store for Scrapblog.

Check out the press release.
