We've assembled a collection of resources which we find interesting. Use the menu at left to explore resources re games, online literature, role playing, interactive fiction, and the future of reading.

Once upon a time we'd also assembled a large-ish collection of SmartMonsters members' home pages. Remember home pages? Facebook has killed them off. We've kept a few that we think are noteworthy.

Please use the fora to suggest resources which you believe will interest the community. Thanks!

"It is important to remember that any abstract story system ultimately refers to the sorrows and pleasures of human life and that the story of any event depends heavily on who is doing the telling. A storytelling system that further calcifies the distortions of stereotypical thinking would be as destructive as the most bigoted and bloodthirsty bard. We humans already do enough mechanical thinking without enlisting machines to help us."
