Abstract :
Given the status of technology today, it is easy to capture experiential data, such as photos, for events and even organize them. That means that one can now easily store experiential data and use it to tell stories. The authors explore the new Internet technology that has led to two novel forms of storytelling that they call micro stories and mega stories.
