Hi,
Here in China the students have a new Web 2.0 craze, called "The Trekker Diaries". The concept is initiated at Southern China Jimei University.
It's an interactive Web 2.0 adventure published weekly. The readers can influence the story by voting. The idea is to give a ( so far unheard) global voice to the Chinese students. This is why the adventures of the principal character, Krem Trekker, are published in real-time in English, too.
The Diaries is supposed to be a new entertainment genre between the Chinese "wuxia" (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, etc.) and Western James Bond stuff.
There is also a lot of insider information about China, background information, a discussion forum and other material. The good thing is, there are no banners, ads or pop-ups. Thus, it seems non-commercial to me.
But have a look by yourself: www.kremtrekker.com
