Yet another virtual way consumers can whet their appetite for the real thing: A new game has users create their own virtual bouquet, and then e-mail or post it to their social networking page, such as Facebook or Myspace.

Large Animal Games has developed a game called "Instant Flowers" where users choose the type of vase, petal shape, number of leaves on the flower and the color of the flowers that they insert in their arrangement. In addition, they can vary the sizes and shapes of the flowers to make them fit the vase. Once the gamer is done designing their arrangement, they can browse through the gallery of virtual floral creations to rate them (from a one to five staring rating).

If you've got some downtime to check out other virtual flowers, read more in the August and September issues of E-Brief.
