The Million Dollar Home Page

Okay, get this.

A kid comes up with the following idea: sell pixels on a website at $1 each. If there are a million pixels, he’ll make a million bucks, and, promise to keep the pixel’s online for five years.

The kid made his million bucks plus more, funding his way for college (according to Wired, June 2006). Here’s his Million Dollar Home Page: http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com/

Think the dot-com era is dead? With news like this, think again. Entreprenuerism can flourish, even in the new media market. An extraordinary story… complete with a blackmail intregue from a hacker group that tried to exploit him; it’s even just interesting to see where a few of these things link off to!
