Chobots: New Clothing Concepts

We are working hard to deliver new set of closing available to all chobots and some of them will be available to citizen only.

Our vision is making our virtual world as informative as possible, so we selected traditional dress styles and uniforms for our concepts. Here they are for your review.

The Future of Chobots

Chobots.com is a public beta now and our team is very happy that even minimal buzz generated thousands of subscriptions during the first days.

We will continuously improve our system all the time, but the next big upgrade is planned for January 2009 when our visitors will be able to access our learning module.

Do you think virtual worlds are good for kids?

When I announced the date of public version of Chobots at the LinkedIn, I was asked if virtual worlds are good for kids?

My answer was immediate. This way I realized that this question was not new to me. As a father, I am not happy how gaming and TV influences kids, so I had all pros. and cons. considered before I decided to create a system for kids.

My answer was that I don't think it's smart to keep children away from TV, PC, Internet or real life. Instead, I believe that children have to learn how to use it right. And the sooner, the better.

And that's why I think Chobots is a unique system. I designed Chobots.com as a family game, where children and parents can play together. No, it's not possible at just one PC, but the system is not demanding to resources, because runs in the browser, so any second PC will work fine. Plus, you can play together with your child through Internet even if you are on the business trip or away from home.

Chobots is not about education, but it is about training the skills children will need in real life, such as team work, logic, communication and others. The system does not have any violence, but it has a lot of action that boys and girls will like.

And of course, safety is one of the most important things for me. I am disappointed about the fact, how many resources should be spent on safety, instead of new features, because there are so many psycho-predators around. But in addition to standard technological safety features, we will invest a lot in live moderation, so freaks will be kicked out immediately.

So my answer is YES! Chobots Virtual World is good for kids. You are welcome to become a Chobots Family in October.

Vayersoft Debuts Chobots

This is how it was mentioned in the press-release of VirtualWolrds Expo. It was the first time I was exhibiting personally and I must say it was not easy! Organization of the exhibition in Los Angeles was great, but at the end of the first day I was so tired that I explained to visitors something about multi-payments and micro-user system :) In such moments, Yaroslav Lazor helped me a lot, so we collected more than 80 business cards from investors, media, potential technology partners and even from competitors.

Also, we tested a "family play" concept and it was highly appreciated, so results of our beta-testing were confirmed. Chobots.com will be a family game first of all. I do expect we will be starting public beta on time. I wish you all the best and become a Chobot soon! ;)

One day of Chobots Life

Chobots.com - Your Family Game!

Chobots Go Live!

Chobots - the first Vayersoft Virtual World for Kids is going to go to public beta in October!

In fact, the functional development is finished and we only need to test the system according to our test-plan. I will come back to development process in another topic, but I must admit that we went by the planning and Agile methodology really rocks!

Chobots world will contain multiple innovative features which set the system as a family game where kids and parents can play together. Our team put so much efforts in the project and I do hope you will be excited as all our beta-testers were! ;)

P.S.
