Every community has a memory of itself.

There are many ways to tell stories about communities and individuals, and new developments in multimedia offer some rather compelling ways to do just that. One organization interested in these types of projects is The Center for Digital Storytelling.

They provide a clearinghouse of information about resources on storytelling and new media. At the site, visitors can read about the center's work and view a number of case studies that include work done with the BBC, the W.K.K. Kellogg Foundation, and the Kansas City Symphony.

The site also includes background on the process of digital storytelling, including several interviews with practitioners in the field and newspaper articles on digital storytelling.
