Taking a cue from the social media trend, "Arcade" is a new website designed to serve as a social and scholarly community for those with an interest in humanities research. The interactive and multimedia site is sponsored by Stanford's Division of Literatures, Cultures, and Languages (DLCL), but is open for use by visitors from around the globe.

The site abounds with interactive elements including blogs by 25 different contributors, virtual seminars and online forums, making Arcade the first widely accessible and interactive platform for intellectual networking in the humanities.
