As the readings point out, flash journalism has created a whole new means of interactive, in-depth storytelling. In the last several years, I've seen a dramatic increase in photo slide shows online. I agree with the author of the chapter one, that photo slide shows can often make good stories even more compelling.
Flash animation allows the user to control how much and which information they absorb at their own speed, which provides "clarity that could not have been achieved in any other medium."
The reading also addresses the importance of packaging and flash journalism. I think the biggest challenge of our final project will be how to organize a nonlinear story.
