Folklore.org vs crowd.story

Folklore is an application devoted to friendly jokes and stories about anything and anyone involved into making the original computers happen. It captures and presents sets of related stories that describe interesting events from multiple perspectives, allowing groups of people to recount their shared history in the form of interlinked memories. Folklore uses lots of relatively short anecdotes rather than a longer, monolithic narrative because anecdotes are inherently modular and extensible, so the story can be elaborated indefinitely by multiple authors, without compromising their individual voices. Interlinked anecdotes also leverage the definitive characteristic of the web, the link, to form little webs of their own, and be stitched into the greater tapestry of the web itself, in a fashion that's not possible on the printed page.

crowdstory is a platform that redefines the experience of public events. By automatically processing videos submitted by attendees, artists, organizers, and all participants, it offers a complete and chronological view of the event. With innovative technology, videos are edited and organized into an interactive timeline, providing an immersive experience from multiple perspectives. If recordings happen simultaneously, a mosaic is created so you can experience the moment from various angles. Moreover, our filtering feature makes it easy to upload videos from past events, automatically selecting content within the event's timeframe. Crowdstory enhances the value of fan videos, turning digital memories into shared stories and preserving users' storage space. With crowdstory, every event becomes a collective narrative, ready to be explored and relived.
