zwinky

My four year old daughter goes crazy whenever she sees the zwinky add on the site. If I click on this thing what will happen? Is it a little paper doll maker or something? will I be getting a bunch of spyware and junk?

It's a program that you download, virtual world and all that jazz. Same old same old. It's free and by free I mean that the bare minimum of things you can do in it are free. Personally, I think it's adware.

It's one of those graphic chatrooms. I've never used it but it looks stupid.

IT'S FREAKIN' EVERYWHERE, THAT'S WHAT IT IS. I wasn't interested in it at first, and the more I see it the more I don't like it. It's just lame-o. Every site I go to has ads for it...and I can't even escape it on TV. It has COMMERCIALS.

Yeah the Zwinky ads are just "filler" ads that one of my ad networks inserts into the mix when there aren't any other actual I-Mockery campaign ads running. I don't get anything out of you clicking on the Zwinky ones, so please don't feel like you need to. The only ones that I like people supporting are the music/movie/video game ones that run on here along with all of the cool individual advertisers on the right hand side of the I-Mockery homepage. I'm just glad pop-ups are no longer part of the site... it felt good to get rid of those last year.

It's one of those "Look at my doll, it's me, but I'm skinny and I'm a pirate. Now my life isn't so bland" kind of things. The alternative to the dark, ironically angled myspace photos that show a third of your face. But your daughter should have fun with it, and I doubt it's adware. Though you might get 10 extra icons for "HOT NEW GAMES"

It's a gateway chat to Second Life. Soon enough your daughter will weigh 450 lbs and wear cat ears.
