Keep stories fresh

Storytelling has become a more common topic for presenters and trainers in recent years. The idea of using stories as dynamic learning tools, and motivational vehicles is accepted by most educators and learning professionals.  Not so well known is how to use storytelling with social media.  How do you use storytelling in your blog, Facebook page, twitter feed, or web page? It is not a simple matter of posting information.  You need to consider the story you are telling and how each post and tweet connect to and relate back to previous "chapters".  The more your story resonates with readers the more they are likely to come back, use your service or product, and in the case of elearning, the more they will retain what they learn.  Here is one take on the topic.
