It’s hard to believe, but 2011 has (almost) come and gone. The Arab Spring, paywalls, Steve Jobs, and Occupy Wall Street (not to mention a Royal Wedding) dominated headlines. Here’s how some of it looked through Sparksheet’s lens.

Transmedia is the new space where visual storytelling exists because:
1. Every screen we can imagine (TV, smart phone, tablet, laptop and yes, the lowly desktop computer) is reached by Internet video, audio, text and images.
2. Every connected consumer can reach back— through each screen.
