If you don't have a good story to tell you might as well save yourself the expensive digital bells and whistles and go back to your writing table. Content is still, thankfully, king. But most artists are inclined to push the boundaries of cultural acceptance, and whenever they come into contact with new tools, some amazing new solutions to old problems are bound to evolve. Not all efforts will meet with success or acceptance, but ah, the delight in trying. So what's a digital storyteller? They are artists/writers using new tools and techniques, like HTML hyper-text linking for the web, animation programming in Macromedia Director and digital movie-making using Adobe Premiere, to tell their stories. These tools, and many others, are helping or perhaps even forcing writers and artists to think outside the realm of traditional linear narrative. Every aspect of storytelling; structure, plot, character, pace, voice, timing, and setting, has the potential to be morphed by digital contact. Many of the new technologies, emergent themes and innovative projects are worth examining as a way to understand the current and constantly evolving state of digital storytelling
