I just tried a few things. Sharing notes here incase anyone wants an overview. I tried visiting a few sites that had stories: * https://nowthisnews.com/stories/paralympic-swimmer-builds-makeshift-pool-to-train-during-shutdown/ https://nowthisnews.com/stories/paralympic-swimmer-builds-ma... * https://www.lonelyplanet.com/stories/5-destinations-to-see-wildlife-with-your-kids-4/ https://www.lonelyplanet.com/stories/5-destinations-to-see-w... What I don't see: * I visited the home pages of those sites. I'm not sure how to open up stories if I were an internet user just passing by. * I don't see a way to exit the stories experience other than clicking a link/article * How to open a story from any web page on a desktop (It is called "Web Stories" so I assumed a few things) This seems to be build on top of AMP: * https://amp.dev/documentation/guides-and-tutorials/start/visual_story/start_story/?format=stories https://amp.dev/documentation/guides-and-tutorials/start/vis... * https://amp.dev/documentation/guides-and-tutorials/integrate/embed-stories/?format=stories https://amp.dev/documentation/guides-and-tutorials/integrate...

> I visited the home pages of those sites. I'm not sure how to open up stories if I were an internet user just passing by. That's probably by design. The stories are meant to be discovered while searching on Google. Of course a site owner should have the common sense to include a separate section on their site for stories. In most CMSs, It would be as simple as setting a 'web stories' category, then adding a link to the navigation that takes them to a dynamically generated page, something like "example.com/web-stories/"
