    Thanks John!

    I knew that this BBC project was the 'birth' of digital storyteling but I didn't realise there was such a comprehensive guide - it looks awesome!!

    Thanks for breaking up the chapters too :)

    There's also a great report from the second International Digital Storytelling Conference that took place in Australia in 2006 - the full PDF report has lots of examples of digital storytelling from around the world, including from all over Australia.

    It's in the website of Australian Digital Storyteller Daryll Bellingham http://www.storytell.com.au - which istelf has lots of interesting reading and some embedded digital stories.

    The direct link to the report is http://www.storytell.com.au/1stPConfReport.pdf

    Cheers
    Jane
