WeeWorld

2000
2017

WeeWorld was a Scottish social networking and messaging website, originally created in 2000 by a company based in Glasgow, Scotland, with smaller offices in London and Boston, Massachusetts. The company created WeeWorld.com, which hosted a massively multiplayer online game aimed at teens and preteens. The game was known for its brand of virtual world-based social simulation and customizable avatars known as "WeeMee's".

History and Culture

WeeWorld was a major avatar‑based social network that shaped early digital fashion, self‑expression, and teen identity culture. It helped popularize the idea of avatars as social personas integrated into messaging and social media. WeeWorld influenced later avatar‑centric platforms like Bitmoji and ZEPETO. Its distinctive art style became a defining aesthetic of mid‑2000s online youth culture.
