How about becoming the twitter of stories? Limit it to 140 words or something (analogous to the 4K compos from the Amiga demo scene).

that is somethng to think about. Not sure how writers will react to 140 words thought. Also do mean characters, right?
140 characters is probably approaching some lower bound of what is required for an interesting story. 140 characters, while conforming to the length of a text SMS, would probably be too brief...
