Digital Dialogues is Now Storified!
As many of you noticed last semester, MITH is now creating Storify pages for all of our Digital Dialogue talks where we post links to resources, people and projects that speakers reference during their talks, 
along with recaps and tweets posted during the events. Click here to look back at the talks from Fall 2015. Links to the Storify are posted on each talk’s page.
