Is It Any Good?

Assuming any improvements on the beta version of the site will make it a more lively community (it's hard to get a sense of that when you can't enter all the buildings or participate in very many activities yet), kids will probably find this a fun place to hang out, but older teens may find it a bit boring. The open chat feature and impending features such as the ability to upload content makes the Internet safety aspect questionable, though, and parents should definitely talk about how to be safe and responsible when chatting and interacting with others. Also, the site's creators have clearly stated that they intend to let advertisers use PlanetCazmo.com as a venue for hawking their products to young consumers; this aspect downgrades the site's value considerably, especially given the fact that it has no real educational value.
