Forgive if this has come up before, I am new and did a bit of searching first. I'm curious to know more about the portal possibilities in SL. Is it theoretically feasible to create a bridge into other existing online games, such that the avatar goes through an SL portal and this simply launches another game? I can imagine many mutually-beneficial possibilities here.

The cynic in me can imagine about half a dozen highly malicious possibilities as well :)

Walk through this portal for Free Money!!!111 (virus)

Walk through this portal for Free Porn!!!111 (phishing scheme)

And so on...
