This text also introduces the reader to new emerging methods that utilise new technologies and explains how to conduct data collection, analysis and representation using new technologies and ‘hypermedia’. It is also worth briefly considering the best reference manager: for either Storyspace 3 or Tinderbox, this is without doubt Bookends (59.

It will investigate how digital technologies potentially transform the ways in which we do research. That is supported in Tinderbox, but non-trivial to implement in Storyspace 3.
