In Local Stories you can build your stories on your own computer and see them immediately on the touchscreen
In building your story you can choose different media options such as photos, text, a map or a movie clip, but in addition you can add a quiz, a poll or recent Twitter messages.
The Local Stories application can be used in Libraries, Schools, Museums, Archives, Information Centers, City Halls, Hotels, Universities and all the other places where you want to tell your stories.
Local Stories is a 100% multitouch application and specially designed for large touchscreens, smartboards and touchwalls.
Users can work both individually or together on the features on the screen. The application can be used both with the screen in a vertical standing position as with the screen used as a touchtable to allow users to navigate through the stories together.
Local Stories offers a ‘cloud based’ CMS. With this CMS you can build stories using your own computer and with the help of others. Many storybuilders work together with local partners such as historical societies or schools.
An unique quality of Local Stories is that it enables you to share your stories with other organisations that use the application. All the organisations that use Local Stories can exchange stories and publish them to their own touchscreens.
Libraries, universities and schools use Local Stories to tell their latest stories and add context from their collections or offer educational materials. Local Stories is also used to display school projects!
