Pete Orford has set up a new online interactive site where users can explore the world of the Dickens "The Mystery of Edwin Drood"
We went down to see what Orford had to say about the site. The Drood Inqiury is based on the Dickens' unfinished novel "The Mystery of Edwin Drood", because Charles Dickens died before the story was completed.
The site explores the many possible endings of the novel, including "Is Edwin dead or alive?", "Who else will die?"
Guest of the site are able to cast their own verdicts and vote on a poll, and compare their answers with the others.
You can explore all your favourite characters' profiles, including John Jasper, Princess Puffer and Edwin Drood.
Fans of the Drood Inquiry are also able to visit the site's Facebook page, Twitter and Google Plus. Share your own opinions via Twitter, and get in touch with those who share a similar interest with you. Typically the sites are most active at 10am GNT for Twitter, and 2pm GMT for Facebook.
Pete Orford did a great job on promoting the Drood Inquiry not only about the amusing page he made but also his heedful on the readership.The site provides a lot of information that readers eager to know and also he updates the Facebook and twitter pages on specific time for the American and British readers.
The site designer said: "There are two main criteria, one is to be fun and the other one is to be multi media." he thinks that there are many sites that have no real engagement, hence, he tries to avoid the same problem in this site.
Setting up a business from nothing is always difficult like this interactive site, the story was hundred years ago, people rarely know it and it takes long time for the site designer to do research and production work. The site s highly appreciate by audience because it presents the old things in a new way. The application of multi media can easily attract a wide range of readers which made the site successful.
