After a long period in development, the virtual world citypixel.com has launched its Facebook application. Check it out here.
The Facebook application allows users to…
– Show off their virtual spaces to all of their Facebook friends
– Invite their Facebook friends to become citypixel.com users
– Interact with their friend’s apartments by rating them and visiting with their avatar
– Buy and send virtual gifts to their friends
– Through paypal, buy extra ‘pixels’ (virtual currency)
Citypixel.com has 30k users and the FBA already has 400 users, so we’ll see what happens.
When I left in the first quarter of 2007, we just had a great year and bonuses were good (well by HSBC standards), however people were nervous about the year ahead. The economy was weakening a bit, credit markets were softening and people were wondering how they would meet revenue targets based off of the great year we just had. I doubt they had any idea how bad it would get… so glad I got out.
