Prepaid money for Habbo Hotel



Prepaid moneyfor Habbo Hotel
Habbo Hotel has a cool new way you can buy virtual money -- in the form of a prepaid gift card. Each $10 card, available at CVS drugstores, is worth 50 Habbo Coins.
Habbo Hotel (www.habbohotel.com), for the uninitiated, is a virtual hangout for teens 13 and up. Teens can create their own customized character, chat with friends and celebrities, play games, go to parties and even decorate their own room. While access to the Web site is free, virtual money can be used to buy stuff to help you in your Habbo world.
Now, buying add-ons to games is nothing new for this generation, but your parents may not understand the point of spending real money to buy virtual money. But, put simply, it's entertainment. And $10 will probably bring you more hours of entertainment than heading to a movie on a Saturday night.
Spend wisely, Habbos!

Quirky queries
It's definitely time to stock up on a new game for those chilly winter days when you can't fathom going outside. Our choice this fall is "Would You Rather...?" by Zobmondo Entertainment.
Basically players are posed two equally uncomfortable questions, like "Would you rather ... be on top of a Ferris wheel during an earthquake -- or -- during an electrical storm?" Players discuss and debate their answers and then guess which choice the group is likely to pick. To win, you must correctly predict the group consensus to each of the questions, so your playing piece can move successfully around the board, and complete three of the even more absurd "would you rather" challenges.
Pick up "Would You Rather...?" Classic Version at Target for $24.95.

Dating made easier
The dating scene is never easy, especially if you're always on the go.
Online Internet dating services have become increasingly popular for busy people, but they don't always capture the true personality of the potential date. That's where PodDater.com (www.poddater.com) comes in.
The venture brings the success of Internet dating to any video MP3 player, including the new iPod with video. PodDater.com allows members to find love (or friendship) by downloading videos of potential matches to their portable player and checking them out on the go.
PodDater, the first video dating service of its kind, allows members to see a person's true personality rather than guessing from just an instant message or e-mail.
Visitors to PodDater can become a member, identify potential matches and then download them to their iPods via the iTunes music service.
