50+Ways

=50+ Web 2.0 Ways To Tell a Story= include component="page" page="walk this way" media type="custom" key="2726993" It was not long ago that producing multimedia digital content required expensive equipment and technical expertise; we are at the point now where we can do some very compelling content creation with nothing more complex than a web browser. In this workshop you will:
 * Design a basic story concept that can be created in a web 2.0 tool using images, audio, and/or video.
 * And then create it quickly using one of 50+ different web tools that are free to use.
 * Plus, you will share in this wiki site your example and observations on the value of the tool

We are using the word "story" in a general sense; it may be a deeply personal one of the [|digital storytelling variety], or it may be a tale of a travel trip, or a simple multimedia presentation. //As of {$revisiondate} Now at 65 Ways!//

As Easy as 1-2-3!

 * 1) ==Outline a Story Idea==
 * 2) ==Find Some Media==
 * 3) ==Pick a Tool to Build Your Story==

What is a "story" here consists of more than one type of media (images + text, audio + images, etc) that are assembled on the web, and can be presented on the web or embedded into other web sites.

And just to prove it can be done, I am going to try and tell the same story as an example for every tool in the list and use as an example in the workshop materials (see the final list of 50 Stories About Dominoe). It has the basic media types you will use- images, text, video, and/or audio.
