A comment I made on another thread has started me thinking...
I've been aware of the existence of fanfic for a long time now, but have only read very very little of it. I was wondering if anyone on here writes or has written fanfic or has any recommendations for good sites for quality or amusement value.
This is one of several internet phenomena which really fascinate me - another being wiki. There was an article in today's Guardian about the
Los Angeles Times - apparently last week they started a 'wikitorial' but have temporarily withdrawn it due to the posting of 'inappropriate material'. Do many forumites refer to wikipedia or contribute to it, or other wiki?
I guess with internet publishing, there's always going to be the problem of quality control, even before you get to offensive content - including porn, spam, and viruses amongst others - but I can happily spend a few hours surfing interesting sites and find that there is a lot of interesting content out there.
So this thread kind of belongs in the book club - anyone read any interesting web content recently?
