Love the story behind Storied! I'm fortunate to not have anyone in my family suffering from Alzheimer's, but I can only imagine how hard it must be to see someone struggle to recall people and events that define them, and then to have something that can help bring some of it back.
Thanks Alan. Yes, it is very challenging indeed to see someone you love slowly losing touch with their defining experiences.

It also makes one poignantly aware of the ephemeral nature of our own memories.

My parents, in there late seventies, are just now deciding to give computers a try! I would be excited to share something like this with them and help preserve their story and our collective family history.
The product is really more geared for you to use with them as your family's digital ambassador. ;)
Great app! Spread the word about the kickstarter campaign so they can release it.
