So this is coming, virtual money is going real. Not so surprising when you see how people are enticed to Word of Warcraft, that some guys are earning money …selling game characters, virtual money, etc on eBay.
And it may become bigger: time is money and has million of people are spending their time in those virtual place, it is normal that an economy will emerge.
