The site was hand-built to old-school html standards free of scripting and server-side trickery to suit the limited technology of some far-reaching audiences. Architecture was heavily oriented around linking contextual information from story to story throughout the site's 10,000 pages of content, optimizing experiencial narrative for every click.
