Today's Webtip: @wnd_go

A twitter based choose your own ending text adventure

Remember text adventures? Those interactive stories you could either get as cheap paperback books or early computer games? The ones that almost always left you dying in rather unfortunate circumstances?

Well, now you can try again in a different way. On Twitter.

Terence Eden spent some time figuring out a way to use multiple twitter accounts to bring some horrific fun to your twitter timeline. He wrote about the process in a blog post which could be pretty useful for anyone else thinking of trying their hands at interactive fiction.

Or you can save that for later and just throw yourself into the horror by starting here, and clicking on one of the choices.

Let me know if you manage to survive. I'm still trying.
