It will begin with six weekly installments, each of which is based on a classic novel--and written by a different Penguin author--and which tasks participants with finding their way through the story using tools developed for the game. </p></blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.news.com/8301-13772_3-9897712-52.html?part=rss&amp;subj=news&amp;tag=2547-1023_3-0-5">News.com</a> <span class='read-more'><a href="http://www.duvien.com/penguin-and-six-start-launched-web-20-style-mashups-we-tell-stories">&nbsp;read&nbsp;more&nbsp;&raquo;</a></span></p> http://www.duvien.com/penguin-and-six-start-launched-web-20-style-mashups-we-tell-stories#comments books google map interactive game mashups web 2.0 Thu, 20 Mar 2008 21:05:50 -0500 duvien 90 at http://www.duvien.com
