Walkthroughs are boring. I've been on the giving end of a walkthrough and I bored myself while explaining the code :D Fortunately I only had to go through the high level because the other programmer was far more experienced in programming than I am, he just didn't know about the project.

A better way? The high level overview mabye while using the actual application so that a person know which part does what. Tests sometimes help the newcomer because they are mini examples of how the code should be used.
