Techcrunch brings news that the virtual world of Whuddleworld ran out of funds in April and is looking to be acquired. Built by a team of just five people it looks like it was a big hit among 13-17 year old female users (according to the corporate website). From Techcrunch:
Co-founder Dee Hardrath claims that at the time of shutdown WhuddleWorld had grown to 76,000 registered members and a monthly page view count of 20M. She also says the company still receives emails four months later from loyal followers pleading them to get the world back into operation.
Overall it looks like a promising acquisition. The business overview (PDF) will give you a general idea. If you're interested, do contact them directly and be sure to let us know how things go!
