mollyweemee.jpgMeet my WeeMee. It's my little digital identity. I can change clothes and looks. I can have a dog, a cell phone, a surf board, etc. Today WeeMees launched in the U.S. and on AOL Instant Messenger. In AIM (and on WeeWorld.com) your WeeMee reacts and animates. Type "OK" and your WeeMee gives a thumbs-up. Type "bling" and see dollar signs. Type "puke" and well, yeah, you get the idea. It's a new way to express yourself and it's surprisingly addicting. Maybe that's why in the U.K. and worldwide, 10 million WeeMees have been created.

Full disclosure - I am a consultant to WeeWorld so I know a lot about these little creatures and how they can also live in your email, on your blog, in your cell phone...
