Pandemic takes the idea of audience participation to the world of social networking. The Colony is a simulated-reality Discovery Channel show that creates the scenario of a disease pandemic and we watch to see how isolated participants react to the altered world. You can join in via Facebook. The Pandemic site takes your circle of friends and puts them into that world. You can change the time line from the outbreak to the pandemic to the survival phase. I have to admit it was unnerving to read as my Facebook friends "reported" on the fictional chaos. The pandemic requires you to allow access to your Facebook data. http://thecolony.discovery.com/#fbid=5jr0YEqLhk6
