StoryShift
Less a game and more a community-driven storytelling experiment, this collection of tales and comics from different authors and artists covers everything from serious sci-fi to epic fantasy, and even humour. The catch? You get to vote on how each new installment of the stories you're reading will go.

My favourite thing in this is Kansas, by MK Douma. My least favourite thing about it is I HAVE TO WAIT TO READ THE REST OF IT. This is why I read all my comics when they're released as collections!
The community-driven story concept has been done before. Most notably, the MSPaintAdventures forum has been doing this for years. I'm certainly all for other developers working on the concept though. There were a lot of pitfalls with the MSPA community getting too large and the forums not being specifically designed for story-telling.
I was aware of MSPA, which is why I didn't say this was the first of its kind. :) I thought the way this was handled and implemented was drastically different enough to stand on its own.

That said, this seems very intriguing.
I am actually not implying that at all. ;) I said you'd get people demanding it instead of the story the author intended.
I feel that this game should be avaliable on E-readers with e-ink display. The small screen of your device makes it difficult to read and it gets uncomfortable.
I hoped for interactive stories framework, instead of normal ones.
Many E-readers have basic functionality web browser. It should be presented that way.
