Japanese Girls Going Crazy for Virtual Boyfriends

Webkare is a combination social-networking site and online game in which young Japanese women attempt to hook up with one of four anime suitors. Players "interact" with their virtual crushes through short cartoon sequences that allow for very little actual interaction. Important events in the storyline are saved digitally in a memories album on the site.
Member also get to customize minimalist profiles and use a Twitter-like micro-blogging feature. Users can become friends with other members and 'talk' to their virtual boyfriends in order to advance in the game.
Virtual boyfriends may seem a little odd, but remember, this is the country that brought us the virtual pet. [From: Washington Post]
