Where do I sign up for that? So does this mean that serious companies will be looking to hire “marketing” staff to work in Second Life? Where do I sign up for that?

On the one hand I feel excited about this on the other it's a bit like knowing that you can jump really high on the moon. So you can use the Neil Armstrong argument when asking for a higher per diem.

When I read something like this (It's very well written, by the way. I'd campaign for a bigger per diem if I were you.), I feel I've stumbled across an alternate universe. The concept is so creative and open ended, it truly boggles the mind. Any business that doesn't stay abreast of the internet and the virtual world is going to be majorly SOL if you ask me. Which brings me to the question handed down through the ages: Are any of us really smarter than a fifth-grader? Whoa! When I read something like this (It’s very well written, by the way.
