"fix8 was already good for making funny webcam clips, using its variety of graphics and options for turning yourself into an animated video.  Now it's teamed up with CAMfess for the purpose of telling secrets.  What better way to bear the burden of your soul than as a disguised animation?  \nWe first covered fix8 here, so you may already know that the recently funded company offers real-time interactive options for avatars made with you and your webcam.  As CAMfess would of course like to offer more tools for encouraging its user base to confess more secrets, the partnership with fix8 allows you to be yourself without letting anyone know who you are.  It's like those ambiguous, shadowy figures we see on Dateline interviews\u2014only funny.  \nSo the concept of remaining anonymous is extended in a very niche way with this particular deal, but with growing concerns for protecting your privacy across social networks, could something like fix8 help solve your problem?  Not really.  They're working in two different realms of privacy control, but fix8 could likely be the icing on your cake if you've already gone to great lengths to keep your identity private.  \nAs the technology improves for fix8 and online networks, we'll see less of a need for fix8 for something like anonymity in general, but it's still a fun application to use.  Social networks like Facebook and Friendster are moving towards more separated profile offerings with different views for different people in your network, so it's clear that privacy is still an issue.  \nBut the partnership between fix8 and CAMfess is a pretty perfect match.  I'd suggest it for casual bloggers (like fake Steve Jobs) who would like to interject some video humor into upcoming entries.  That being said, perhaps we'll see more partnerships between fix8 and other blogging networks in the future."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
