as other social networks launched new chronology and curation tools –such as Facebook’s moments and Twitter’s threading–which allowed users to embed those threads elsewhere, Storify became less useful. - https://www.fastcompany.com/40506878/why-the-once-darling-social-service-storify-is-coming-to-an-end https://twitter.com/Chronotope/status/940630693687808000

 * Storify** -- [|storify.com] -- is a way to curate stories using the social web including Twitter tweets, Flickr photos and YouTube videos. Re-order the elements any way you would like.

Storify is made for the timely and the evergreen. It's very easy to aggregate tweets from a breaking story or from a glacially-paced slow conversation about a particular topic. The service is popular with professional journalists.
