It somehow seems fitting that the first multimedia web-site book to appear online where the viewer can click on the pictures to hear story sound clips would be a classic like "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland".
When the original "Alice" was released a century ago, it created quite a stir in certain circles, due to its' controversial political commentary, and was considered by some to be a "radical work."
The new "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Dynamic Text Version", located at
http://www.megabrands.com/alice
is also considered by most who see it, also as a "radical work". Not for its' text, which is identical to the original story, but for the methods employed in sending the message. This web site features subtle animations of the original Tenille illustrations. The story is accompanied by period musical classics, seamlessly integrated into the chapters and has embedded interactive sounds to round out this presentation.
While the original "Alice" took a generation to reach around the globe, the "Dynamic Text Alice" has already circled the globe many times on the internet. Some quotes from around the world:
"From the surprise and delight of the clean audio to the subtle but effective animated illustrations, this site is destined to set new standards in Web design. " John Hilvert - The Australian ( Australia's Largest Paper)
"A wonderful children's classic set to music and graced with graphics and animations throughout the site."
"Super job!"
Robert W. Husted Netscape Communications Corporation
"The most inventive use of an internet web site I've seen in my two years of Web Surfing.
"Intuitive, ease of navigation, originality in presentation, all make this site a perfect '10'. A must visit!" Paul Allen - WLYN Radio (Boston)
"Your site is one of the most innovative web pages I have ever seen. The page design & layout are very well done, the subject matter is a timeless classic, the illustrations are superb and the music is wonderful. I can't imagine how many hours of work you must have put in to bring this site to completion.
"I have not read "Alice" in many years but look forward to reading each chapter on your site." Bill Ross - Editor
"Cozy up with your kids in front of the screen and enjoy the classic story, complete with illustrations.
"Until recently cool kids stuff like this was only available on $50 software programs." - The net.guy WebWatch Weekender Site of the Week 10/17
These are just a few of the many positive comments we have received in the past few weeks. You or someone you know will love "Alice". Enjoy your visit.
