Choose Your Own Adventure is a series of books where the reader chooses different paths as they go through the story. For instance:

You're friend says "we should follow that man, he looks like he was up to no good!" This sounds dangerous? Do you want to:

  • Follow the man (go to page 204)
  • Ignore the man and go to arcade (go to page 143)

On the laptop this would be an environment to build stories like this, probably in the browser. And of course collaborate on them and all that fun stuff. This has been done before (links to examples?) -- sometimes fully collaboratively (anytime you can add a new choice or follow a choice that hasn't been filled out), sometimes more limited.

We're thinking about working on this in the Chicago Interest Group.
