Express Your Inner Freak

Bored? Want a cool buddy icon for your Instant Messenger? Need a fun image to jazz up a homepage?

Look no further than www.meez.com. To fully test the free service, I checked it out for myself. I ended up with this:

Pretty wild, right? I heard about the site from my friend, and had to see it. I started by creating my “Meez”. I was dismayed to discover that to wear the best items, you had to have “Coinz”. I had none. But that was easily fixed, and I was rich after a short visit to the Meez Arcade. I thoroughly enjoyed my session of the quite addicting game “Bloons”, which I recommend as a time-passer. I began to create my icon methodically. I first chose a face shape and hair style (digging the pink!), and later found the gown. The shawl was an impulse purchase, at the steep price of 200 coinz. But I couldn’t resist–it was a perfect finish to my pink-and-blue-tacky-extravaganza-meez. The runway was a stroke of pure genius. I found it in the “Animations” section, which is full of everything from “Eating Rice” to “Convertible Sports Car” to “Sleeping”. I found the Fashion Week background after searching for runway-related items. All in all, a fun, exiting way to express your inner freak.

I rest my case.
