Get in on the Actions

Sometimes, what we do conveys more than what we say. Like the time when my dad gave my mom a vacuum cleaner for Valentine’s Day, and she broke into tears. Or when he (later) presented her with two airline tickets to Italy, and she danced around the room, elated.

Well, what would a scene be, without props and stage direction? The new wis.dm Scenes will include fun props that let you set the stage to explore people and friendships further one-to-one.

When you’re spending time in a scene you will be able to select an action to show how you’re feeling. You can drink a beer at the bar, protest at a forum, or eavesdrop at a café. These actions will be visible to the rest of the community, and there are some you can even provide to other members, like buying a drink.

Intrigued by someone in particular? You will be able to take action by sending a gift or asking for a personal chat. After all, actions speak louder than words.

This week’s winner of a fLip digital camcorder in the Win a Wii with wis.dm contest is Michale. The grand prize winner of a Nintendo Wii is Corey_D. Congratulations to you both!
