Fortunately - users in the US have many options, and CyWorlds - take-it-or-leave-it from their collection of graphics and mini items is not likely to appeal to many myspace users.

MySpace may be terrible tecnnically - and not appeal to the geek “technorati” in elegance - but it is King with users - and it’s easy to see why:

I find it quite odd how people would buy those things when in the US it's just free. If this does get popular in the USA, then it's just sad. Nuff said. I just happened across this so by all means flame me if you want, since I won't be coming back anytime soon. Cheers.

I think the target market for here is definitely the younger kids. Although, I wonder how their allowances will stack up to the money spent by 20 somethings. What do you think?

I think the target market for here is definitely the younger kids.

Although, I wonder how their allowances will stack up to the money spent by 20 somethings.
