New Internet Startup Offers a "Real" Virtual Penpal

Members of the new Internet startup MyTrueBestFriend.com can now correspond with a self created alter ego. After creating a friend a team of writers is waiting to assume the role of this fictional friend and create an experience strikingly similar to writing a real life friend.

Lafayette, IN, August 08, 2007 --(PR.com)-- An Internet startup is offering a new type of online social experience. On MyTrueBestFriend.com people can now create their own online alter ego to be an email pen pal. Users create a profile of their ideal best friend with as much detail as they wish and shortly afterwards they will receive a real message from their friend. On the other end is a team of writers assuming the identities of the users’ friends that actually write the correspondence. Each identity is assigned to a specific writer to ensure continuity. Over time a meaningful relationship will develop between a user and his or her virtual friend.
