Question Microsoft Advertars or Advertards?

Microsoft has patented a new way of advertising MMO's on the internet. They're going to ask you to use avatars thats are walking...erm, posted billboards. People click on these and that rewards the user in either real world or possibly in-game currencies.

Is this advertising brilliance, or digital whoring; you decide!

Its just taking second life to a whole new level, think your glorified hooker/stripper can now put seperate advertisements on each breast. Click the right one for Pepsi and the left one for Coke.

I do not see this working out in MMOs, i.e. game worlds. Perhaps in some selected virtual world environments though.
