Be aware of things called webkinz. The are made by Gund® and appear that they are mearly stuffed animals, they are not! Attached to each and every one is a secret code. For a week I heard "Daddy can I get a webkins" I finally broke down on Sunday a let my two spawn get these webkins. Well they get them home and all of a sudden both of my younguns are ighting over my laptop. Not only do you register to adopt them (remember Cabbage Patch Kids?) but they set up a whole litte world for them online. Now they have to feed the thing and buy it furniture and play with it and get a online play job to make webkinz money to buy it more food and crap or this thing will shrivel up and die, then you have to but the kid another webkins to get another secret code.! It's like the hamster in the furnace again and it took days to get the smell of of the house (does smouldering rodent ever leave your nostrils?) but I digress.
These scraggly looking stuffed vermin may sound innocent but they are not. I have two computers, two offspring and two of these freaking Webkins. They consume all of my availiable online xmarks time. Ensure this does not happen to you!
Oh I hear one of them now. screaming for me to get off of the internet so that they can go clean up online poop that their new little online pet has done all over it's little online room.
I shall be back to xmarks in about a year when these friggin things die!
