Twinity members can create a personal avatar, explore virtual cities, move into a 3D home, chat with friends, work, get creative, or just have fun together.  Twinity also offers businesses new ways of engaging with real people in real cities. Through virtual shops and branded presences, in-world ad campaigns, product placements, and sponsored events, Twinity lets you enter into a direct, emotional, digital dialog with your target group. Twinity is currently in public Beta. Founded in July 2006 and financed by leading venture capital firms, Metaversum has offices in Berlin, Kiev, and Singapore.” CrunchBase Page.

So, with all these interesting happenings in the virtual world space, it will be great to share this quick interview with Jeremy Snyder.
