Fans can 'text' outcome of TV storyline

Warner Bros is calling it a television first. At the end of the April 19th episode of One Tree Hill, viewers can vote via text messaging on their Cingular cell phones whether or not a character should kiss his sister-in-law. The outcome of the vote will determine the storyline for the April 26th episode of the show. [via Lost Remote via Unmediated]

Actually, this is not a first. In 2003, a UK soap called «InYrShoes» offered viewers the option of sending text messages at the end of each episode, to vote and decide which way the cliffhanger or dilemma should go.
