Started business

uVme has a solid parent company behind it, called VWD or Virtual World Direct. The Co-founders of VWD, Tom Brodie and Len Fitzgerald, launched "e-lottery" in 2002, and soon developed into a company with over 160,000 members world wide. They have paid out millions in commissions and bonuses, to the members. E-lottery has been successful for over 5 years now. Tom and Len wanted a business that could be taken to every country around the world, but soon ran into hurdles, as some countries like the USA, made online gambling illegal. This is where uVme was born. uVme stands for You V's Me, and has been in development for the past 2.5 years. uVme is a totally new business, but with one major difference: without the risk of being "new". There is a company with a solid foundation behind it, with an established support team, marketing team and technical-services team. All the profits of VWD, after expences of course, have been pumped right back into the company. Everything the company has, is owned out right, nothing is leased or borrowed. VWD is asset and cash rich. uVme is a fast-moving and unique business that combines three of the most exciting phenomena on the internet : ONLINE GAMES, SOCIAL NETWORKING WITH INSTANT LIVE COMMUNICATION, and Social Marketing. This market is so powerful, it’s growing four times faster than the Internet. It’s NEW, VIBRANT, DYNAMIC, and above all else, it’s FUN. VWD wanted to establish games online based on skill, rather than chance. There will not be any Casino games at uVme. This will allow VWD to make uVme available online to every country around the world. VWD has been to Bangalore, India - equivalent to America's Silicone Valley. Interviewed 400 of Indias finest, game programers, some have even written games for xbox. VWD employs 15 of these games programers to write games for uVme. This way VWD will still be in a position of ownership, even over the games that it will offer people to play. Some of the games that will be on offer will be Action Games, Puzzles, Word Games, Card Games, Sports Games like 8 Ball Pool, FootBall, Basket Ball, Snow Boarding, Strategy Games such as, Checkers, Backgammon, Mahjong and jigsaw's to name a few. The programers will write about 3-4 games a month, to add to the establish game base. There will always be new games to play at uVme. Infact, we are encouraged to write into VWD asking them to create a game that we can think of, thats pretty amazing. The online games business, although already massive, is set to explode. The market today (2007) is approximately worth $164 USD per second ($5.2 billion USD annually), and in the next 156 weeks is expected to grow to $412 USD per second, of every minute of every day, and growing. The online games sector has been identified as the next step in the evolution of online entertainment, and people of all ages, from all over the world, play in their millions. And within this sector, "Casual skilled-based games" rank as one of the most popular pastimes. These games are being played in a tournament format, with each player paying a cash entry fee to play, and with a cash or merchandise prize going to the winner or winners of the tournament. uVme will be exactly like this, where people will come to play on their computers for the fun of a challenge. Playing them online against someone else adds an extra social, competitive element; and playing for cash prizes between USD$1 and $1,000 upwards makes them even more exciting and rewarding! Integrating social networking gives your business the power to spread virally, around the world. What is social networking? Its online communities such as "MySpace" and "Facebook", where people will add their friends, post photos and entries in the form of a blog, "network based" on shared interests or likes/dislikes, and interect with each other. This phenomenon is also growing staggeringly popular. MySpace currently has 194 million users. And Facebook, now the 18th most visited web site in the world, did not even exist until three years ago! Weblogs, published diaries, and expressed opinions in online form, is believed to be 70 million blogs, with about 120,000 new ones being set up each day. Thats about 1.4 new blogs every second. uVme will have at its hub, a fully integrated Instant Messenger. You will be able to automatically add all of your current contacts from MSN, Google, AIM and Yahoo! Messenger. THAT’S RIGHT … we are talking about a web-based instant communicator that allows you to send instant messages, view all of your contacts’ online statuses, social network, AND play games, all at the same time, in the same place. Your players and Associates will be able to use their own uVme blog to share experiences and communicate to all their friends. Players can earn more loyalty points to unlock even more functionality in their blog, from larger storage capacity, to RSS feeds, plus lots more. These elements usually cost on other social networking sites, but your players can access these for free simply by playing more and more games and having fun! Being able to play live and INSTANTLY is very powerful. Imagine how much easier it is to ask someone already on your site to play a game then and there! No phone calls or emails are necessary... and there’s no chance of missing people who aren’t around when you try to contact them. You can even send group challenges to hundreds — even thousands — of people instantly via this tool. As uVme will be based online, you can play and instantly message everyone, from any computer, around the world, as there will be nothing to download. uVme is going to give the average person a chance to build an online business as well. uVme was pre-launched on July 15th 2007 in Cheltenham, UK.
