The document describes a new workstation concept called "Stories and Venues" that is based on an open source operating system and a new metaphor for organizing and interacting with personal content. It presents the key ideas of stories, which are collections of items populated by messages, documents, and media, and venues, which represent the virtual contexts where stories take place. It also includes diagrams illustrating the interaction design framework and interface layers for this new workstation concept.
