bytestories is a website dedicated to sharing short stories based on real-life experiences. Anyone is able to create an account and publish stories with no editorial barrier in place.

The site enforces a limit of 1500 characters on the stories to keep the length of the stories within the display of a standard computer screen.

There are 35 different categories which the writers can use for their stories and they're also able to nominate their own.

Version 1.0 of the site went live in September 2012 and version 2.0 was released in January 2013.
