Abstract
Storytelling is a method by which members of a community communicate, learn and build identity. Here we describe community story exchange (CSE), a generic storytelling environment customised for two quite different communities. One is a special interest community of adults engaged in heritage. The other is a virtual community of two schools. In trails, CSE was successfully used by both communities and further extensions were suggested including an extended range of collaboration models and the incorporation of synchronous events.
