I agree that twinity is actually quite different from other virtual worlds. The only thing you can create is the apartment , which may be real or fake , but frankly they are trying hard. Though I would like to think that after one year of trying, they should be getting their act right by now.&lt;br&gt;Hornestly I think it has a lot of room to improve in the sense that there needs to be a lot more things to do there rather than walking in a barren street (no many people around) admitting around a supposing real backdrop of buildings which cannot be entered . &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I guess the concept is interesting but its the execution that is key.. I am still unsure of what they are trying to give consumers other than occassional dance events or fashion events.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The fake apartments are a distraction as they are completely a turn off for a mirror world. Its getting confusing in Twinity on whats real and whats not.. I personally think they are a very skewed world. Part Real, Part Fake.. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Other than that, engine is definitely easier to use than 2nd life. They are still in beta.. so give them a break.. Maybe shall check back in another year if they are still around..

There is nothing to do there and worse no one to talk to. There is apparently scenes of "REAL" cities to some extend with all the shops branded as Twinity and just buildings that resembles cartoon versions. Its neither real or cartoon . I dont know how to describe it.&lt;br&gt;Honestly I dont see why anyone after visiting it once will continue going in again? I dont .. the first comment is correct. ... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz:}&lt;br&gt;Thats the common sign you see from avartars after visiting the location. &lt;br&gt;You cannot fly , just walk, and it takes a long while to way around with nothing much to do.&lt;br&gt;Try it and you will know what I mean.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">David</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 28 Aug 2009 22:03:01 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Twinity – what is it good for?</title><link>http://www.metaversejournal.com/2008/06/30/twinity-%e2%80%93-what-is-it-good-for/#comment-14865518</link><description>Philip&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;From what you have listed, you are not a fool. But you are damn bored to the extend of nothing to do.&lt;br&gt;There is virtually no traffic in Twinity. i.e. There is nothing to do there.&lt;br&gt;They launch Berlin for more than a year and its a ghost town even today.&lt;br&gt;I dont think their singapore launch was also successful. Its like their berlin.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Nothing to do!&lt;br&gt;Worse I cannot unsubscribe from their mailing list. I am bored with them.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">DUd</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 14 Aug 2009 22:32:55 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Twinity – what is it good for?</title><link>http://www.metaversejournal.com/2008/06/30/twinity-%e2%80%93-what-is-it-good-for/#comment-14625049</link><description>Well I joined 30th of July. I have three apartments with widescreen flat TVs playing You Tube videos, I have decorated with pictures from my PC, I have 20 friends from Germany, Singapore, Canada, USA, UK, France, Spain, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand and India and 1 proper girlfriend. I have partied with the Top people and discussed Metaphysics on Twinity and commented on the X-Wing a friend has on his Balcony in case North Korea invades, helped design a club too. I have 5 outfits for every occasion and have about 25 different animations. I have learned German. Tech Support is unsurpassed. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I don't have time for zzzzz's I am not a fool LOL</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">twitter-29165515</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 11 Aug 2009 06:49:18 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Twinity – what is it good for?</title><link>http://www.metaversejournal.com/2008/06/30/twinity-%e2%80%93-what-is-it-good-for/#comment-1333604</link><description>zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz:)</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">hiuy</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 30 Jun 2008 20:53:07 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
