Some ten years ago, I spoke of creating a similar platform with a couple of cash-rich investors wanting to invest in technology - they were adamant, lecturing me that money do not grow on statistics - meaning the social statistics does not beget enough returns. They invested in something else and went busted through the dotcom crash, whilst I patiently as always await for the Leprachaun.
Maybe one day an angel will drop by and command my wishes true - hopefully by then I’ll still be interested in making some people wealthier. For each successful platform there are hundreds clamoring with concepts - the problem is most of them are successful since success is indeed subjective. I had a short chat with someone over the past three days about the very business of Social Networks and he, I believed, through his hazel eyes disapproved of such genre. You can talk about the importance of SNs but you can’t make people sign the dotted line if they’re ignorant and are fearful of investing and success.
Figures on paper are potential gauge - the other ninety percent is working it, and making it work!
If you’ve ever ventured into a land where your evolution besides interacting with other players are through solving quests, and earning your gold, you’ll find vSide a bit on the reality scene. If you’ve played Sims Online, Runescape, Habbo Hotel, and a plethora of other multiplayer social playing games, you’ll appreciate vSide, a virtual world almost similar to Second Life. Imagine being in a world where Music is being pushed to the target market - where you meet people from all over the world, interact with them, and quests aside, you mingle with the Who’s Who.
On signing-up, you dress your 3-D avatar with the coolest and zanniest outfit, decorate your apartment, and invite friends to exchange lifestyle tips and habits. You also party away at RaiJuku, New Venezia, and LaGenoaAires, three virtual cities with boutiques and neighborhoods, created within vSide for your entertainment and living pleasure… There are over 40 different music channels, and matching locations where you can listen in groups to that music…listening to hip-hop to indie rock to top club hits. They range from the practically unheard of to large, well known acts…and more. You earn vPoints by just being on the virtual platform, and if you’re hurried to keep up with the Jones’ you can always fill your wallet with vBux!
Founded by Andrew Littlefield, of Doppelganger, vSide is a true-3D virtual world providing “next-generation” entertainment and social networking for the teen demographic. vSide runs off of a Java server layer, using a heavily modified Torque engine as the front end. A vSide server can support between 300 and 600 avatars, which for live music, makes for a decent show!
Imagine 10000 members with free access earning vPoints not hurrying to spice-up their vLife ? Imagine 10 percent of that 10k, filling their wallets with vBux let alone the plethora of things they can rave and rant about on their blogs, in schools, at parties ? Do the calculations - if investors still think I’m talking nonsense then shoot me already for trying to make them see where the pot of gold is! Let’s not even start with branding, and advertising clients’ products and services through such a platform. vPoints are earned when subscribers try out new features, do entertaining and helpful things, and spending active time in vSide whilst vBux can be easily bought by ATM’s located inworld with a regular credit card.
Just imagine the potential!
Ready to take the International scene by storm, vSide is as promising as Facebook, and MySpace put together. Dubbed the new and more interactive 3D Facebook, vSide not only promises ever-lasting parties with celebs, but puts the target market where they are - Online! There are activities designed by subscribers, and Celebrity events, and forums for learning in getting the best of vSide - guides to keep you learning how you can interactively be as social as you’d like to be offline even if you’re a wallpaper!
