US spending on virtual goods will reach $1 billion this year and $1.6 billion in 2010, according to Inside Virtual Goods.
A lot of that spending is from teenage girls dressing up their avatars on sites like IMVU, Meez, and IAC’s Zwinky’s.
But a good portion of it comes from players of social games, looking to make the games they are addicted to a little bit easier.
There’s a huge market for Zynga Poker chips, for example.
That’s great news for Facebook, because those social games makers spend a lot of money advertising their new releases. – Silicon Alley Insider

Do you think elbow strikes are overrated? Is it as effective as the palm-heel strike to the face? Which is going to be more effective each time but i do know the elbow is very bony and it hurts when you hit some one with it, just be careful not to hit your funny bone or you will feel it too. Thanks for the well thought out post.
