Starbright World is a virtual hangout where you can build on existing friendships or create new ones, from home or from the hospital. Starbright World is an online social network where teens (ages 13 to 20) who have serious medical conditions, and siblings of seriously ill teens, can connect with each other via moderated chat rooms, games, bulletin boards, videos, and more.

Starlight Partners with OneBigGame
Starlight recently partnered with the world's first non-profit video game publisher OneBigGame, who just launched "Chime," a puzzle game where you place shapes on a grid to create music. OneBigGame aims to give a minimum of 80 percent of all donations, which will be split 50/50 between its charity partners Save the Children and Starlight. If you have an Xbox LIVE® Arcade (the online games portal available to Xbox360 owners), then this is definitely worth checking out. The game features multiple difficulty levels, modes and playing grids, and music by Moby and others. If you have a chance to play, let us know what you think!
SBW Featured on About.com!
Pat Bass, the writer behind About.com's Asthma Blog, has once again shown his support for Starlight by blogging about SBW (Pat featured Starlight's asthma game, Quest for the Code, on the blog several weeks ago as well). The write-up, found here, includes a forum where SBW members and their parents can share their Starbright World experiences. Go check it out, and be sure to thank Pat for spreading the word.
