Storytweeting

We recently stumbled upon Storytellin – a Twitter feed that aggregates Delicious bookmarks about storytelling – when a tweet about Fourth Story popped up. The links are great.

Some tweet treats we’ve loved:

  • My Milk Toof: A story about the adventures of a small tooth named Ickle, and his buddy Lardee told through daily pictures (see photo)
  • Purefold: Ridley Scott’s new project that will scan social networking sites for online conversations across social media to be “used by brands as the basis for storylines that are fleshed out and rewritten by professional scriptwriters.”
  • The Wikipedia pages on Folklore, and Transmedia Storytelling
  • Guillermo Del Toro’s quote about the Story Engine: “In the next 10 years, we’re going to see all the forms of entertainment – film, television, video, games, and print – melding into a single-platform ’story-engine.’”
  • Blabberize: Make photos talk!
  • One-Sentence: True stories told in one sentence.
