When **Ars Technica** does it, it truly does it.
This time - an amazing look at Interactive Fiction:
> To understand the history of IF, the best place to turn for insight is the authors themselves.
> Not just the authors of notable text games—although many of the people I interviewed for this article do have that claim to fame—but the authors of the communities and the tools that have kept the torch burning.
> Here's what they had to say about IF and its legacy.
