Times change. When the movies came about people said that it was a trend that will die soon. When the TV came out, even more people said that it won't catch on. And here we are again, at the dawn of IPTV, finding the first professionally-made, web-only, live action series:
Sanctuary. Co-created by one of Sci-Fi Channel's
Stargate SG-1 producers,
Stage3Media's Damian Kindler was very kind to answer some of our questions about the promising project, which recently even hit a
Guinness record as the most expensive web-only production ever ($4.5 million CDN). You can view behind-the-scenes and previews
here and the first full 17-minute webisode
here (includes a cameo of
Stargate: Atlantis' own David Hewlett), while you can support the project by
buying the HD DRM-free version of the webisodes at the official site. Read more in our interview inside!

You're right mmu_man
Sanctuary site is what I'd classify more as a multimedia site from looking at it. ( because it uses flash, sound, pictures and animation ).
I also believe that true websites are those with little or no flash.
I can't deal with sites that use lots of flash. These type of sites are not OS friendly with anything except the mainstream 3 ( Windows, Linux, OS X ).
