People are selling ad space on their foreheads. And on other body parts. Some are finding takers, some aren't.
Via Doc Searls, here's a link to the e-Bay market for forehead ad space.
I mean, it had to come to this. Didn't it?

Getting the last laugh now. When people kid me about my receding hairline I usually inform them that I prefer the more positive opinion that it is not a receding hairline, but rather an advancing forehead. Little did I know that this was a genetic business opportunity.

All this stuff makes me wonder though. How does the client verify that the human billboard is wearing the body ad for the agreed-upon length of time, and in the agreed-upon locations?
If the trend really catches on, I see a market for third-party verification consultantancies.
