Thursday, February 26, 2092 Please note that at all events and activities are posted in CyT (Cybertown Time). Cybertown wishes to thank citizens for independently creating colony-related websites. As the sites are outside of Cybertown, Cybertown is not responsible for the content on those websites. [CVN
Daily News is provided for the people, and in many cases BY the people!
So our mailbox is wide open, ready for and interested in reading all
your submissions, whether a classified ad, activity announcement,
or suggestion for content!] by zodiac01 When you logged into Cybertown recently, did you notice anything different? You may have been redirected to a page with which you were unfamiliar. In an effort to ensure the security of Cybertown resident's accounts, IVN is now asking for everyone to create a password question. This is primarily to help members who have forgotten their passwords or who request to make changes to their accounts and it protects your account from being changed by somebody else. Members of the CVN News team constantly remind our residents to check and change their password on a frequent or monthly basis. This Q& A is just one added step of security provided to help keep your password and Cybertown identity safe. The CVN Medical officer is standing by to check out our house vote auditors. they are awaiting the February votes with trepidations and palpitations after their long rest!! We continue to congratulate morningstar! WTG! Congrats on your January win! Voting Time is here again! What? Again??!!! Yes, it never really ends! We have had some irritating computer problems delaying this post. The current Gallery of Homes Vote now updated! Go Ye and Vote! Kind of a silly question isn't it? Yet in a long discussion with a professional computer fixer, he tells us of many users who range from careless to paranoid. Our bets are that we can find many of those features within ourselves and our computer! Here are 3 questions to ask yourself! A. daily? B. weekly? C. Annually? Weekly should be and usually is often enough, but Norton (symantec) issued 4 updates in ONE day. A. Never B. Almost Never C. Monthly D. What passwords? My browser is set to remember them all. Cybertown recommends monthly changes for your CT password! A. What are tasks? B. maybe C. Well, I DO know when my computer is on! D. You bet! Did you look up tasks? Here is a website for you to look and play. A. No B. No, I don't care! C. Sure! D. You tell me! Go play at the whatis website above for more information, only if you want it. Thass all! You want more, tell us! No mail...no more of these silly questions.and answers! pictures and story by Cai2k Did you know? Had you heard? Did you visit during one of the online checks? Well CVN has just a few CVN pictures. And now the rest of the story... There have been rumours, and just a little information about the Cybertown Museum in the making. It is coming in our city's future. We have gathered some details that may change. With approval, you now can read about the Cybertown Museum. The Museum is going to hit cybertown with celebration, and a fantastic new world full of features. The museum's function is to store old or rare items for people to view. There are many quarters to the Museum, each following a particular theme. So far, the rooms are as follows: A "Caretaker" is both a city position and an honor. This opportunity comes only from a special invitation by the Founder of Cybertown. Each Cybertown Caretaker is chosen based on observed dedication, performance, experience, and history. Each Caretaker assists the City Council in meetings and advice. Caretakers also vote on the many proposals sent in by Cybertown Citizens. Caretakers also have special tasks that help in the daily operations of Cybertown that include anything from help email to assisting our Founder. JeetKuneDo summarizes it nicely, "In a nutshell, we serve." Right now there are four Caretakers in Cybertown: diverDestiny, Jeetkunedo, crashdummy, and Talonn. And now the rest of our story... Hawk said in his announcement establishing this group: "The Caretakers group consists of those whose level of contribution, commitment, loyalty, and trust has led them to having been awarded the highest honor available in Cybertown - the status of City Advisor - together with certain key people from the Cybertown staff. Admission to the Caretakers is by invitation only." Their purpose and goals are clear. The purpose of the Caretakers is to do those actions that will guarantee the current and future survival of Cybertown, including but not limited to, advising the Mayor and Council as to actions or inactions needed in Cybertown on a regular basis. The Caretakers will also both assist the Cybertown staff with some of their functions and will also obtain the help of other trusted citizens as needed. "The Caretakers are entrusted with forwarding the Cybertown goals and ideals and its Constitution and other published Guidelines. There is a Caretaker's in-box at the Jump Gate. When you speak to a member of the Caretakers, you are speaking to me. ~ Hawk" We were amazed and pleased when one of our correspondents showed us the status of various city council proposals. This is a handy url to bookmark or add to favorites! City Council proposals. Change is constant in Cybertown, and we wanted to remind you that this wonderful site and service to our city continues under Lexa. We encourage you to click on in, to visit, browse, and perhaps even send your pictures to be added to the many already there! Just click on
Faces & Pets of Cybertown! Enjoy the city!
by DeannaTroi for the Sponsorship Team We thought you would never ask! The subscription fee only helps to address the cost of maintaining the site. For the expansion and development that we wish to achieve for our community further sustained investment is needed to enable Cybertown to reach its true potential. The external advertisements you have been seeing in several areas of Cybertown and now appearing as banner adverts are all part of how this is coming into fruition. It's not all about outside adverts though. With the technology and sophisticated user group that Cybertown has, there is a wide-open and largely untapped market niche that we have the opportunity to build upon. Imagine living in a colony or neighborhood named after a major production company and seeing their first run movies in a mansion or at the e-Plex. Imagine going to the mall and buying real things for your real house. With the marriage of commerce, 3D technology and you, the savvy user, Cybertown has the ability to make virtual shopping an immersive experience that goes way beyond what the traditional online retail organization has to offer. by DeannaTroi for the Sponsorship Team No. Alhough the name of the team can be confusing, we know. A brief overview of the goal of the Sponsorship team is simply to bring in external corporate sponsors to aid Cybertown in the next stage of its development and evolution. To do this, we have created a number of focus groups. These are in the form of teams created to target and research potential companies to approach. From there, authorized members are on hand to walk a representative of that company through the process of agreeing to a mutually beneficial arrangement and negotiating and signing the contracts. There are even implementation and support teams already in place to facilitate those agreements within Cybertown. We also have teams that form an ongoing relationship with the sponsor to ensure that the needs of both parties are addressed so that the sponsor and our community obtain maximum benefit from this mutual relationship. To find out more about who is involved please visit http://www.sponsor.jasonrc.com That sounds exciting to me! How can I get in on it? The best way is to actively apply to assist the Sponsorship Team in their efforts at securing outside support. There are two levels of involvement offered to meet and match your strengths, experience, skill base and level of commitment. One, is by filling out the form located at http://www.sponsor.jasonrc.com/sponsorform.htm and letting us see how you are best suited for helping. Fill this out in as much detail as possible and you will be contacted regarding your application. Two, is by joining our management team. To do this you will need to first fill out the above form, be over the age of 18, AND be able to submit a résumé of real life skills and experiences that you can bring to the team. You can and should submit your résumé to Jason_RC@Cybertown.com What's Alphanumeric you ask? well...1633ctiscool would be an example. A BAD example we are told! 1c6t3i3s coo9l would be better! CyberAngel2000 adds a link for all of us! The title, Security Tips tells all. http://www.secureflorida.org/index.php?submenu=Security_Tips&src=gendocs&link=Passwords&category=Security%20Tips AuntBee hosted this fast paced event, and Holodoc hosted the trivia contest that followed. Holodoc thanks ebbors for the wonderful trivia questions she provided. AuntBee and Hawk both made nominations and presentations. AuntBee surprised Hawk with her last presentation, to him! The following people were the winners named: CVN Congratulates each of these most worthy award winners and offers our special thanks to ABluEyedBrunette for the transcript of this Awards event. Here you can read what was said about each winner. The Random Acts of Kindness Awards are planned to be given every three months. Anyone may nominate someone for the award. Contact AuntBee! Recipients will receive a Bluebie vrml statue for their Random Acts Of Kindness and a memory book from the event. Many stories are now available on a commemorative website, which was launched on the day of the event. This site will continue to provide us all with a constant reminder of how special our community is to our members. Not only was this a wonderful and heartfelt event, but we have, and are now left with, a timeless reminder and great advertisement for our community. In attendance were many citizens. Our community founder, Hawk, made two announcements as well as presenting his own views on what Cybertown means to him. CYBERTOWN EUROPEAN REUNION IN MAY editme informed CVN that there will be a gathering of Cybertown personalities on May 20. It looks to be a great independently developed citizen experience and we hope those citizens who can, will make the opportunity to attend. See the details at Cybertown Euro Reunion There is a place for members to discuss things non-CT related, like Earth politics, current news, movies, music, UFOs, games, family stuff, cars, computers, jokes etc., etc. To speak your mind at the new Forums, click on the Feedback button on the Control Panel and click on the yellow Forums sign.
