Hi all, I just stumbled across this article (http://www.greatamericannovel.com/den/index.php# where the author writes the story in the form of mock emails. The user (reader?) installs the software on their computer, and scrolls through the various electronic messages to put the story together. Kind of like a digital G&S. From the web page: "Two young professionals "meet" through a mis-sent e-mail. They become "attracted" in cyber-space and tentatively agree to a "real" meeting. A brutal assault follows. The obvious suspect is the e-mail partner, but one person is unconvinced. A series of surprises and revelations follows -- all delivered in digital form, all entirely possible, and all representing ways we now learn of events in our world where virtual reality constantly fights its counterpart."
