MyCyberTwin- create the cyber version of yourself

You can't be available to chat online all the time, or can you? MyCyberTwin is a way for you to create a cyber version of yourself that can communicate with friends when you're not around.

By answering 79 questions about yourself you teach your twin what you might say when posed with different questions. In addition to answering the personality questions there is a virtual classroom where you can teach your twin lesson on how to be you with questions on everything from how you say hello to how you insult people. Essentially you can create a cyber version of yourself that is so much like you no one will notice when you're not around.

To have your Twin chat with your friends you can embed a flash window on your website or myspace page, or you can set your twin to chat for you in Microsoft Windows Live Messenger. You can check out what your twin says when you're not around by reading the chat logs on CyberTwin's website.

Your twin will have 500 conversations every 28 days for free, after that it starts charging for its services with 500 more credits running you $12.50 and 50,000 credits $349.50. For novelty purposes the free version is a pretty fun concept. Paying a bot that's just like you to chat on the internet? That's kind of creepy. The site still has a few kinks in it as well. I had to log back in mid survey when I created my twin this morning. Anyway, here I am. Chat with me by clicking the logo (unless 500 people beat you to it).

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do. Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game. The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
