For Example, can there be an offline gathering of your readers or even an offline "play" that gets them involved. Thats where I think you take engagement with your audience to a whole new level.

I have been thinking that as people spend more and more time on the web it will become more of an entertainment media. Of course, people are playing games, looking at videos and reading electronic books, but I believe it will go the way TV did with sites that are more situation comedies and or soap operas. All fictional. And they can be used in the way you explain, as treasure chests where people find clues to answer a question. I have been experimenting with the concept with a site I built called Mercy Row. www.mercyrow.com It is kind of a hobby now. I am not a fiction writer so it is a bit rough and I just started. However, it is a concept with characters. At some point, I hope to attract some aspiring writers or actors to play the roles of the characters. Most of the information is presented through blog entries by the characters. I would love to be able to add videos and other media in the future. I also have a companion site (also fictional) that is run by one of the characters. It is www.paranormalregion.com and is as it sounds about paranormal activities.
