  1. She's a Flight Risk...

    A presumably fictional blog about a wealthy heiress who flees her family for not entirely clear reasons, possibly to do with a forced marriage. The blog begins, "On March 2, 2003 at 4:12 pm, I disappeared. My name is isabella v., but it's not. I'm twentysomething and I am an international fugitive."

  2. Kaycee Nicole

    This was a very popular blog from 1999-2001 about teenaged Kaycee Nicole's struggle with cancer. The blog was presented as real, and Kaycee Nicole eventually "died", as told by another fictional character blogging as her mother. The hoax, once discovered, caused many loyal fans and friends great distress.

  3. David Still :)

    This website invites its readers to take the identity of David Still, a possibly fictional character whose life is presented on the website. The reader is addressed as though he or she is David Still: "You live in a neighbourhood called The Reality (De Realiteit). No, really, you do! It may seem unusual, but all of the following is true, and you love it!" In addition to photos from David Still's childhood, readers can explore stories of his childhood memories presented as simply hypertext narratives, with just a few links. 

    The project doesn't simply ask readers to imagine being David Still, it invites us to send out emails using his email account, either using one of the provided scripts, or writing one from scratch. The website also allows readers to browse emails confused recipients of these emails have sent in reply to "David Still".
