Telling the Christmas Story in a digital age

For the final weekend of Christmas shopping, an inspired YouTube video from “ExcentricPT.”

The times they are a changin’ — but, who would notice?

On the other hand, the storytelling possibilities are endless, aren’t they?

***

The Washington Post earlier this week put together a powerful story  — using Facebook to tell the heartbreaking story of a mother, her new baby, and a family’s searing tragedy. I’ve never seen anything told like this — with social media allowing this woman to speak in her own voice and her family to grieve in theirs. Sad as this story is, it’s well worth reading.
