Interactive Narratives, the multimedia database site begun by Andrew DeVigal many moons ago, has relaunched with a spiffy new interface, new multimedia stories, and even a Facebook fan page.
Welcome to Interactive Narratives 2.0, a site designed to capture the best of online visual storytelling around the country and the world. Unlike the original IN, submission to the database is open to the membership of Interactive Narratives. And members can also rate and make comments on individual entries. A sort functionality allow users to list those interactives focused on their preference or craft. Our goal is to highlight rich-media content, engaging storytelling, and eye-popping design in an environment that fosters interaction, discussion, and learning.
Interactive Narratives has the best database for this type of material out there. With IN 2.0, we’ve retained the ability to search past multimedia stories from the original database. Now, it will only get better with the community contributing to this knowledge base. IN2.0 will truly be a gathering place for multimedia storytellers. It’s not just a place for professionals but also freelancers, students and citizen journalist. The site will go beyond the critiques. The site will go beyond collecting the blog postings into one space. Interactive Narratives will gather those storytellers that care about the high-standards of their narratives.
I agree with Andrew. IN is one of the best resources I’ve found for examples that I use constantly in classes and consulting work. And now that it’s back with the backing of the Online News Association, it’s worth visiting often.
