Taunt Media

Taunt Media was established in Vancouver, BC, Canada on January 1st, 2008, and was founded by Nick Bouton. Taunt was created in order to sponsor, develop, and nurture several community-driven collaborative web site properties in a variety of fields.

Taunt Media’s first project, Protagonize, is an interactive fiction site that was launched in late December, 2007.

Taunt Media has several other sites in development, including bevvie, a “a social drink guide where users can browse a database of cocktails, martinis, and other mixed drinks”, and reroller, a “online gamer-oriented social networking tool aimed at bringing together players of various types of massively multiplayer online games (MMOGs)”.

Protagonize is a collaborative writing site based on the concept of ‘branching’ – that is, adding onto and finishing each other’s short writings. For example, one popular story is entitled If You Go Down into the Woods Today… , which is then led on by other authors into variant options. Some stories have 10-20 branches that spawn out into their own stories. It seems to appeal to an artsy, creative writing crowd.
