Habbo Hotel...





I found out about this website from my sister, who goes on it regularly, it was an interesting concept to me, people get to make an interactive, cartoon style person, and then make your way around the "hotel" rooms which you can yourself create and personalise with furniture, and weird little objects like pets.

The site is primarily aimed at younger crowds, 12 - 18, however whilst on there i did find some ppl claiming to be over 30.

One thing i did find a little strange was the amount of people pretending to be babies. It seems that by some rules, people on this, pretend to get married, make a home in thier rooms, adopt other habbo's to pretend to be thier children, and then get things like pets.

This is not the case for all, some people do just go into the hotel and treat it like a chat room, however some taking it more seriously than others, joining a thing called the habbo club, wherein u get to be part of a private members club, at the cost of 2.50 a month, this seemed weird to me, as i think people are definatly not thinking about the fact that basically, they are just being charged to have their own graphics in a chat room, and people definatly not just see it that way...
