An intriguing idea... the text content enabling relevant ads. The problem is it would break immersion (even text ads, because they bring in the outside world).

An intriguing idea... the text content enabling relevant ads. The problem is it would break immersion (even text ads, because they bring in the outside world).
I wonder if there is a way to incorporate ads, so that it does not break immersion? e.g. non-trading aliens visiting earth, being puzzled by the ads. Perhaps some way of mocking them. Or, a game based on ads - finding similarities between them; or links (similar to wikipedia-based games). Unfortunately, I would guess that reacting to ads might breach Adwords' terms of service.
It could be done in a positive way, like TV shows about advertisement (The Gruen Transfer; those best-of compilations). This is kind of crazy, but: given text content, rating ads, for best targeting, worst targeting, controversial targeting, etc.
