Digital Storytelling and Weblogs
I'm Mark Bernstein, chief scientist at Eastgate Systems. Since 1982, we've been publishing serious hypertexts -- fiction and nonfiction -- and designing new hypertext tools like Storyspace and Tinderbox.
These are some notes from a lecture at the 2003 Digital Storytelling Festival in Sedona, Arizona. The Festival had its own weblog, too.
These notes contain sources I mentioned in my talk. There are lots of examples that are equally good, and in many cases I reached for the most easily available example, or the one that looked good in the color scheme or fit the pacing of the talk.
