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).

In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet. They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
