Spinal Tap’s free “Saucy Jack” song – not so free

Cory Doctorow at Boing Boing just posted about a new song from Spinal Tap: “Saucy Jack.” Disclosure: I’m a huge fan of Spinal Tap, and the idea that we’re getting new offerings from this band two decades after the world was introduced to the concepts of “11” and two-foot monoliths from Stonehenge makes me hopeful […]

Utherworlds Officially Launches

“All thought is alive…” The latest offering from Philip Straub, Utherworlds, is officially online.

Shared Story Worlds

A History and Future of Collaborative Storytelling

This is my (un)scientific, (non-)comprehensive, and (not at all) objective overview of the rise of collaborative storytelling: how we (more or less) got here, and where we may (kinda sorta) be heading.
