I joined up for IMVU, the online avatar company, in 2004. Today, nearly two years later, I get my first message from another member and it’s about lesbian avatar pr0n. Not exactly what I expected when I opened the email. File under: It was only a matter of time.
I’ve been using the new Yahoo Chat on my Mac, and am loving it, especially video that actually works and the avatars. I have several saved, from working hard (suit/office background) to late night (funky outfit and club backdrop) and a few in between. When I go fishing I throw on my outdoor gear and use that as my Away message. The only think that’s missing is sound effects and VOIP support, currently only available in the PC version.
