A work that originated on the Internet.

Subsets include Web Comics, Web Animation, Web Serial Novels, Podcasts, and Vlog Series. The Abridged Series and Let's Play also tend to be Web Originals. The distinction between Fan Fic and Web Original is that fanfic is based another work and web original is all invention.

It is common for Web Original works, especially Web Serial Novels, to spawn Shared Universes as other would-be writers think the original work is pretty neat and contact the writer for permission to play in his sandbox.
