Yes it's possible, through an exchange like CoinBase.com (Good company to get started, you can even setup an ecommerce store to accept it) or btc-e.com for example. You can also find local bitcoin brokers in your area at localbitcoins.com

The value of Bitcoin seems to fluctuate quite a bit. Is there a way to accept it on a site, then convert directly to USD at the rate the user paid for their content with?

I think there is a way if you are using Coinbase and processor-type bitpay (I think that bitpay can easily/quickly convert it to USD at the current bitcoin rate, google it, bitpay)

[fendlestick]

its not just Bitcoin there are loads of coins, see www.cryptosextoys.com for an example of how to do crypto right!

Can you make money? Yes! But you need to know how these coins work and when to trade them and when to hold and when to convert to Litecoin etc.

(top right for the coin list)

Frankly, I don't know ANYTHING about Bitcoin. I have 2 domains in this area that are selling for $10 each, though, if anybody wants them.
