There are many new arrivals in Twinity & we do not want anyone being without a home. If you buy an apartment in the new areas of Berlin which costs more than 10 €, you will get 1000 globals as a start-up aid.
Offer is only valid between 10 March – 25 March 2010; and for the new regions of Berlin; (around Potsdamer Platz, Kurfürstendamm, Savignyplatz, Gedächtniskirche).
Find our real estate offers here on twinity.com marketplace.
Here’s the pointer to the post over at Koinup. We over here at Metaversum have put in a lot of effort in welcoming our new members, former Therians or not. I’m glad to see that someone noticed 🙂
Metaversum has extended a warm welcome to these new users, by creating a special welcome package for Therians. Metaversums’ Jeremy also stepped in, by writing an honest, open blog entry discussing some of the cited reasons for There’s demise and how Metaversum deals with those issues. He also engages Twinizens (old and new alike) by soliciting specific user feedback, but so far he hasn’t gotten much, which is a bit of a shame. If you have anything to say to Jeremy, please go post your thoughts.
Yes, it really would be great to get more feedback there. Please comment everyone!
And, I want to make sure to highlight the pictures posted on Koinup. Granted, I’m biased, but I do think the Pergamon Museum is very well done.
Our friends over at Koinup continue to attract some of the best and brightest in the metaverse to post cool content over there. One of the latest examples is some of Dee Riley’s pictures of Twinity’s Welcome Area! 🙂
Today we found Taha taking the Singapore Tour! He has not been long in Twinity, but he already found his sneakers in the Sneakers Point and wears them everyday!
Dear Twinizens,
We are going to have a downtime to deploy a huge update of Twinity between 9am-10am CET on Monday, March 15th. There are going to be a lot of grand new features to delight you! We’ve also prepared whole new graphics and effects!
We hope you’ll like it!
Comments and suggestions? Just let us know!

Prompted by two posts on the Twinity Monitor about the demise of There.com and asking about the Therians, I wanted to share some of our plans for Twinity. Read More
Then look no further than this!
Also noted here:
I’m spending much more time on the virtual mirror world. It has been a rewarding experience! Even though I’m following Twinity for over two years now, I must admit: there’s more to write about Twinity than I thought.
Over at Koinup, Sered noticed that Twinity has gone beyond Twinity, and into Google Earth. This is more follow-up on Remap Berlin, a very cool project!
So the next time you browse Berlin pictures in Panoramio, take a careful look – is it the real thing or not..?
PS: Also noted on sered’s blog.
Cutiebear in front of the Big Ben!
She is a brand new therian discovering virtual London, but she is already showing her taste in clothes around. If you like what Cutiebear is wearing, have a look in “The Punk Rock Store” in Twinity!
Dear Thereians,
Today, we come to a sad reality – There.com is shutting down.
We feel for you and our community will give you a warm welcome in Twinity. We’ve already seen a lot of you in-world and it has been fun getting to know you. Have a look at Twinity for yourself by downloading our installer here.
We engaged in a lot of discussions and know you are interested to hear what Twinity can offer you. For all of you interested to find a new home in Twinity we’d like to offer you the following Welcome Package.
1) We know many of you had some money in There. During our tutorial everyone receives 950 globals as a bonus to buy neat outfits or any other item in our shops or to rent a place. On top of that, you will get another 1000 globals starting pocket money! All you need to do is join Twinity free and join our “1000 Globals Welcome Package” group; we will then reward you with the globals in your wallet.
2) If you have big plans and want to build or contribute creatively, we have a special offer for all new members joining in March. Simply go into your profile and upgrade to premium membership and you’ll enjoy free premium membership until the end of 2011! As a premium member you can…
* create and upload your own 3D models and items
* upload textures, or your own 3d meshes and animations (Max, Blender, etc)
* design your own clothes using predefined 3D models and 2D textures
* sell items for globals
* use free VoIP
* and much more.
But giving you developers, neighborhood owners and active community members the tools is only halfway there! So we’ll be holding special info and tutorial sessions on how to upload 3D models, create shops or throw your own events in Twinity. On top of that, we’ll provide you with information, materials and grid patterns that can be changed with Collada editors and uploaded directly to Twinity. Plus, we will have special meet’n’greet events with our team, so you can get a view from behind the scene.
We hope this will give you a good start in our growing global community. Give it a try, just look for some new friends, and we’re sure you will find them in no time. Or, meet your old pals in the There.com Lounge. Feel free to invite former friends from There.com to come join you in Twinity. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact our support team at support[at]twinity.com.
Welcome & have fun,
Your Twinity Team
