I've signed up for an alpha account but haven't heard word yet. I'm interested in seeing how you develop for the platform and how open it really is.

At the current "exchange rate" of L$265 to the dollar, extremely small fractions of a dollar can be exchanged in game, without any transaction fee. Compare that to the paypal $0.05 minimum transaction fee, or typical credit card minimums on the order of a dollar. The same reason the Kwikie Mart doesn't accept cards for transactions smaller than $5 is the same reason it's impossible at the moment to charge a reasonable sub dollar or sub cent fee for online content.

Moreover, you can offer your own 3D-models to others for sale.

Photoshop users will be able to access Google's public 3D archive to download, convert, and edit user-created 3D models from within Photoshop.

The free plug-in could give users the ability to take content previously generated by other applications or users and fine-tune the models with Photoshop's image-editing tools.

The 3D models could then be saved to a local disk or resubmitted to the 3D Warehouse via Google's SketchUp application. Users can also submit 3D models of buildings for inclusion in Google Earth's 3D city-modelling projects.
