[MUD-Dev] Micro-payment Graphical MUSH

[Dave Rickey]

I ran across this, and it's really, *really* interesting.

  http://www.habbohotel.com/

Essentially, a graphical MUSH in Shockwave format, sort of "The Sims
meets Habitat".  The really interesting part is that the revenue model
is based on buying "Habbo Credits" at the rate of 1 credit = 10
english pence (credits being mostly good for furnishing your own room,
apparently).  It's not very big yet, "not very big" means only a few
hundred peak users.  It's from a UK company, but I couldn't even
figure out what some of the languages being spoken were.
