A new on line LIFE?

As you all know I am a big fan of online virtual worlds. Today while on yahoo I input virtual worlds to see if I could find something new. I found MTV's site, which is not new but there are new virtual worlds that they added. Much to my surprise they now have a virtual "Real World". Yes, you can actually learn in a virtual house, with other players in the virtual Real World. Also there is an upcoming virtual "Pimp my Ride". Can you believe it rofl. I was unable to get on the game to show you anything. I kept downloading it but it would not allow me to actually play. It is probably just as well that I can't. Here is the link if you want to check it out, www.vmtv.com/virtualrealworld.com . I did find a site I was able to download and play, it's called "Kaneva". I actually enjoyed playing it. I made a toon which was easy and simple. When I clicked to enter the world I went to my own little studio apartment. You can go to a mall and shop as well. (a lot like second life). I purchase a new outfit (you know I HAD TOO rofl). You can purchase credits to buy clothing and home decor. You can upgrade your home to a loft, a condo, or buy land to build. You can buy a deed for a cafe, club, and other hang out places. You can upload movies, videos, pictures, textures, etc to the game. The community is in beta right now so it's free to join. I did go to you tube to see if I could find a link for you to view the game. I found one that wasn't all that but at least you get an idea. Here is the link for the actually game: http://www.kaneva.com/home .kaneva Watch the video it can give you a little more info on the game. As soon as I am finish with my webpage for Kaneva I will share it with you.
