It's quite apparent from many cross-platform, transmedia and ARG discussions that managing all the usernames, passwords, digital assets, dates and time for a multitude of sites quickly becomes an exercise in wrangling technology - starting with a spreadsheet and expanding across whiteboards and post-its.
I've been wrestling with this problem for sometime now and I'd now like to solicit help from all the knowledgeable folks out there who have or would like to have a storytelling tool that worked across platforms and relieved a lot of headaches - allowing them to focus on the storytelling.
Please checkout www.transmediastoryteller.com for a look at what I've been developing. We're about ready now to roll out over the summer and what I really like to do is focus on delivering the most popular features first. Please join the forum to request your top five features, email or Tweet me - I'll take the feedback in whatever format you'd like to deliver it ;)
Ps. I've got a better name for the service lined up but right now this kind says what it does on the tin.
Sounds good. I guess the thing is to check out what others have been doing and make sure the new tool is flexible enough to meet the varying demands of different types of projects.
