However 9 out of 10 of them have a reason for it such as giving it to a charity. In this chase the only charity I see is face book which is selfish. If it was for a good cause I would be all over it and happy to use it. Seems like a low and worthless tool otherwise to make a quick buck for facebook. well, Some sites already have something like this and it does rather well.

If you think about it Second Life, while not applying the 'atta boy' gift giving, uses real money to purchase virtual goods. There are also MMORPG games out on the market that has the same type of money system where you buy, with real money, points that you can upgrade your character. After all look at World of Warcraft. People E-Bay special items for thousands of dollars! When you put all these things in perspective it doesn't seem that ridiculous anymore. <em>Jesse Liebman's last blog post..<a href='http://www.jesseliebman.com/2009/04/06/redbox-is-the-2009-zappos/' rel="nofollow">Redbox is the 2009 Zappos</a></em> I would agree this sounds absolutely ridiculous and I wonder why anyone would engage is this type of online engagement, that is until I thought about Second Life.
