There’s no such thing as a single video game for everyone. People have their own playstyles and preferences. That’s why to introduce the new Kwanzoo personality quizzes, we’re debuting the “What kind of gamer are you?” quiz.

We’ve told you about what Kwanzoo is doing with WhatTheyPlay and Glam Media. Let’s take a look at what we’re doing with web-based instant communications company Meebo.com.
Meebo lets people IM from a web browser, supporting everything from the standard AOL Instant Messenger and Google Talk to Jabber and ICQ. The Meebo leaderboard ad unit runs at the bottom of the IM window.

The problem with banner or display ads is that visitors to a site have trained themselves not to pay attention to them. Why would they? The ads don’t do anything except take up space.
We’ve recently introduced a quiz-based solution to appeal to publishers and readers alike. For an example, head over to WhatTheyPlay.com, a site devoted to informing parents about the world of video games and what’s appropriate for their kids. Check the bottom right of the front page. Look closely, and you’ll see a familiar logo.

Good news, digital media fans: HBO has now made some of their most popular shows available for purchase on iTunes. Ranging from $1.99 to $2.99 per episode, premium programming like Deadwood and Flight of the Conchords is now available at non-premium prices.

It’s the weekend, and we wanted to share a few of the details on how Search works as you play social trivia games on Kwanzoo. You’ve probably seen the Search box right on top. Kwanzoo lets you search on all of the categories that we support, viz: movie, TV show, actor, actress, director, character and other. Search will pull results for you for all trivia topics that contain the text that you type in. Try typing “Frat” and you will get: Frat Pack and Lothney “Sloth” Fratelli!
We all sometimes mis-spell the word or topic name we want to search on. Try typing Caribean instead of Caribbean in the search box (say you want to play on Pirates of the Caribbean). Surprise! The search comes back with the correct results! This works on Kwanzoo as we have built in support for Aliases.
