I have been working on XMPP based chat systems for many years, because I think XMPP is the best infrastructure for the task.

Avatars can walk, they can approach each other, chat (of course), embedded video conference, ask the salesperson, watch streaming together, ad-hoc meetings, demonstration/rallies. And then there is the "things" layer: virtual items on the page and in your inventory, exchange of virtual goods, business cards, gaming, adventure...
