VentureBeat: Hi5 stagnates, and so it does the predictable: bets the farm on games

    It's the correct move for Hi5 to focus in this direction away from the FB juggernaut, especially given their international audience.

    But if users don't want to wait to use their 3D avatars inside fun flash games, they can already do so here at Meez where we've been doing it for over a year - http://bit.ly/4ohGlC

    Hi5 has had the worst design of any of the social networks. It's even worse than MySpace. The new redesign isn't much better. With such amateur design skills, I don't see them being able to pull off social gaming and avatars, which require even more advanced design competency and where design is everything.
