KiwiBox: A Website for Teens

Marli
Most teens want to find fun websites where you can play games, read the latest celebrity gossip, and meet new friends. Kiwi Box is one of those sites. It's perfect for young teens looking for a website made just for them. Kiwi Box is easy to use and provides a fun environment to stay in touch with friends over the summer.

Once you become a Kiwi Box member, you can create your own homepage, journal, calendar, wish list, polls, and much more. Kiwi Box also has features like kiwi points that you can earn from referring other friends to get accounts. When you've earned enough kiwi points you can then redeem them for cool prizes. The prizes range from temporary tattoos, to an X-Box 360. Some other cool prizes include an iPod Shuffle, PlayStation 2, Sony PlayStation Portable, 160 GB iPod, and a PlayStation 3. You start out with 200 points just for signing up and can gain points by referring a friend, login in everyday, becoming a Kiwi Box reporter, download and use Kiwi Box Instant Messenger, or even just by playing Kiwi Games.

Kiwi Jobs are probably the quickest way to earn points and you do so by applying for the job you are interested in. There are 6 jobs to choose from: Advisor, Kiwi Helper, Kiwi Scout, News Teamer, Reporter, or Street Teamer. Kiwi Jobs are perfect for teens who want to work, but don't really have any bills to pay for. Instead of having to get dropped off at a boring job, they can stay home and cover topics that they are interested in while earning cool prizes. You could earn enough points to get a PlayStation 3 (worth 600,000 points)!

The articles on Kiwi Box are quite good and the topics are ones that teens are more interested in. The categories include Music, Entertainment, Love, Fashion & Beauty, Life, and Giving Back. So no matter what you're interested in, there is sure to be an article that will grab your attention. The homepage shows some of the most popular articles which currently cover topics like Iron Man and Coolest TV Moms. You can comment on any article you choose and also read what other Kiwi Box members had to say about them.

I used to have a Kiwi Box membership when I was in 7th grade. My cousin and I would be on it all day during the summer sending each other messages and getting our old classmates to join. There is just so much to do on this site as a member, that I was never bored. Of course, there were times when my parents forced me to brave the sweltering sun and go outside, but when I was inside I have a great time making mad-libs and sending kiwi notes.

    Kiwibox is a fraud - they are more interested in their advertising dollars than anything else. They claim to offer rewards that they never ship, and they claim to offer points for playing their ridiculous games and then - no points. There is no customer service - no response to repeated attempts to resolve the situation. They need to get their act together or stop pretending to offer a quality site to teens, in order to scam companies out of their advertising dollars.
