A work that [[Shaped Like Itself|originated on the web]].

Subsets include [[Web Animation]], [[Web Comics]], [[Web Games]], [[Web Serial Novel|Web Serial Novels]], [[Podcast|Podcasts]], and [[Vlog Series]]. [[The Abridged Series]], [[Let's Play|Let's Plays]], and [[After Action Report|After Action Reports]] also tend to be Web Originals. The distinction between [[Fanfic]] and Web Original is that fanfic is based on other work and web original is almost all invention.

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