The cost of setting up the mopy fish was roughly equivalent to that of a "small tv commercial", but, says mr jackson, it has been used in 55 countries and there have been no technical costs since it was set up. So far, 300,000 people have downloaded the fish from the internet, and hp's aim is to get on to 10 million pcs worldwide. "the idea is that they will continue to mopy once they've found the short cut, and they will tend not to go back." "the more you print, the more rewards you get," says mr jackson. The user can spend points on accessories for the fish's environment, making it happier and enhancing the appearance of the screensaver. every time a multiple printer is used, the fish is given more points, so the jollier your virtual fish tank is.Īt the same time, hewlett packard can also tell who is using its printers more often, and to whom the message has not yet got through. For each original document the user sends to their printer, they earn MOPy (Multiple Original Printouts) points. the fish can be downloaded from the internet and installed on an office pc. Global beach's wheeze was simple, but, says clive jackson, creative director and chief executive, it is one that he predicts will be re-created many times in the future. hewlett packard was worried that people were still printing out once on the printer, and then photocopying it dozens of times. ("mopy" stands for "multiple original printers", capable of printing out the same document lots of times). global beach has created the mopy fish for hewlett packard, which wanted to raise awareness of its office printers. the mopy fish lives in a virtual fish tank where you can earn points to add rocks, divers, thermometers and, eventually, japanese water gardens and pagodas.

The owner must feed and play with his or her fish or, after 14 days, it will die. it took six months to create the fish, taking millions of pictures and studying the habits of real parrot fish - as well as constructing a technical brain to allow the fish to react in different ways. The consultancy global beach has created the "mopy fish", to live on a pc desktop. but while the latest addition to the fold of virtual creatures - a parrot fish for your desktop - may swim, eat, and need cleaning and exercise, it will also hook you into a sophisticated marketing agenda. Virtual pets - previously confined to tamagotchi-crazed children - have now entered the workplace for adults. it is a carefully crafted marketing tool. but, says glenda cooper, consumer affairs correspondent, the mopy fish is far from child's play. now adults can own a virtual pet in the office. the copyright, if any, still belongs to the original owner.Ĭhildren have their tamagotchis to feed and care for. this was originally published on decemat but has been gone for quite sometime.
