VVIP Social Networking

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Smallworld You Will Never Participate In

— December 28, 2007 — Pop Culture
Snark alert! Since I won't EVER be in this clique, it is my duty to make fun. A banker has launched a VVIP Social Network site that is by invitation only. Yes, a banker with serious self-esteem issues obviously.

"Those who make a SmallWorld's cut must adhere to strict criteria," Luxury Launches explained. "Exchanges are conducted exclusively in English. Perfect spelling is a must. Vulgarity, intolerance, racial or pornographic references are all taboo. The 10 a SmallWorld webmasters are charged with responding rapidly to the faintest trace of abuse and their efforts appear to be paying off; the virulence often present on the Internet is absent on the site's forums. Discussions might instead center on practical matters -- such as where to buy "an elegant and discreet" diamond."

Since we all know VVIPs do nothing but sit around wondering how to hook up with other celebs, this is bound to be a roaring success. Snark alert is now lifted.
