Story Corps

I've been looking for this site! I was introduced to this site last semester during Dialectical Practices, and loved it. 

Something I like about this site is that when you scroll down on a page, the menu bar shows up on the top of the page. This way, you don't have to scroll back up in order to move pages. Also, I like that there are two viewing methods for the stories. I think this makes it open for different types of viewers. For the gridded image viewing, more of the frequent visitors can filter what they've already seen. For the short descriptive viewing, newer visitors can scroll through each one to see what they want to watch. 

I think the site filters out any unnecessary information, and focuses on targeting their audiences. 

However, on the bottom where there are lists of sponsors and partners, loc.gov/folklife seems to be misplaced under NPR.
