Hawaii Stories in eList Hawaii Directory

HawaiiStories is two things. Well, many things. Well... Essentially, HawaiiStories is a a storytelling community, a gathering place where web-savvy islanders and islanders-at-heart share their thoughts - be they random epiphanies, poignant observations, anecdotes, rants, questions, lyrics, poems, or anything else, really. Hawaii is what ties the people together, but the things they share cross the whole spectrum of everyday life. HawaiiStories may be irreverent and silly one moment, heavy and introspective the next, and then simply casual, conversational, and fun. Geeks would call it a community weblog or blog, but not in the traditional link-collecting, web-spelunking sense of Metafilter. Rather, something more in the spirit of The City Stories Project, which (along with the now-defunct Surreilly.com) partially served as the inspiration for HawaiiStories. The genesis for HawaiiStories came from online diarists, journalers, and personal webloggers - people with a love of writing, storytelling, and exhibitionism. But in practice, the HawaiiStories community is much broader, and is fortunately much more informal and casual. We hope the HawaiiStories community weblog will inspire island webheads to share their stories, and respond and react to the tales and thoughts of others, fostering a fun and intelligent (well, mostly intelligent) exchange of both random ideas and provocative points of view.
