Talk about diving deep into a labyrinth of paths in which every road leads you back to a beginning in a way you can't believe since you made it a point to go in different directions, or in this case, use different search terms. Yes, that's what is has been like trying to find more sites on The Garden of Forking Paths. Every search in some way brings me back to the geocities site I have already commented on. While it's funny considering the story that that should be the case, it's also frustrating that more people haven't taken advantage of the story. I think about this especailly in What turn places us and our narrator in a different part of the story? Or what about objects, such as the letter or the crucial telephone or the encyclopedia that transport us to different sections of the story? Granted the idea behind all of these scenarios is exactly the smae as clicking on a simple word, but I think that because the process of endlessly clicking and reading can be a bit cumbersome, being able to entice the audience with playful visuals would be a great help.
