Over on sered’s lives, you can see someone relaxing in the straits after a long walk through Virtual Singapore. 🙂

Are Mirror Worlds Mirroring the Real World? from Virtual Speak
Over on the Virtual Speak blog, there’s a post called “Are mirror worlds mirroring the real world?” by meganrutherford. The discussion of Twinity is very encouraging to hear:
However, I have been pretty impressed with Twinity which couches itself as: A 3D mirror world based on real cites and real people. The first cities developed thus far in the Twinity app. are Berlin and Singapore. Virtual Berlin for instance offers a full array of shops, galleries, cafés, bars, etc.
…
Look for more mirror worlds to emerge in the future. I vote for them as I would much rather visit Berlin virtually and avoid all the hassles of missed flight connections and lost luggage. Virtual Berlin here I come!
Give it a read!

3D Virtual Community MMO Released Singapore Area
Sometimes the way people phrase things is quite interesting. Actually, in this original post from Game-script.net, mirrored on an MMOGaming.co.uk forum, we’re described as “German 3D Virtual Community”. I wonder what they would say if they knew that about 80% of Twinizens are outside Germany. 😉
