Because chances are, Alex Tew, a 21-year-old student from a small town in England, is cleverer than you. And he is proving it by earning a cool million dollars in four months on the Internet. from CNN
This dude from Notthingham Uni. cracking his balls heads for this Uni's tuition fees & other expense. laying on his bed, pen down idea on 'How to become a millionair'. 20 minutes, just 20 mins and with his idea of selling pixels of space on this website with 1 pixel = $1 and there will 1,000,000 pixels to be sold on his website. and that will be ? yeap, the 1st Million. and 4 months later, he is a millionaire ! damm. wat were u doing when u just enter Uni ? party party party ?
but IMHO, 1st i m not sure how long this thing will last. 2nd, the adverts on the website seems to be very small, and cant really give lots of information about the thing ur selling. yes, the site might be having millions of hits (last recorded, during the 2 weeks on Xmas & NYE, recorded 3.2 million hits !!! MCH !!!), but is it that effective in terms of marketing your service/goods ? heck cares, he got the money, popularity and tuition fees for the 3yrs in Uni :P. 3rd, it will only work in overseas, definitely not in Malaysia (at least for the meantime). M'sia (or even Asian) 's spending power on the Internet is still very limited. Most of the people are still having doubt about the Internet technology and purchasing via the web & a click of button. have u ever done any trxns online ?
btw, the last 1,000 pixels was auctioned @ ebay.com of coz, sudah close lor. and guess wat, it was sold with the winning bid of US $38,100.00 . about 100,000 RM , WTF, u can get a pretty good car here or low cost apartment... cast money wey !! yeap, bidding is close, but u can still check it out at http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5652179487&ssPageName=ADME:L:LCA:UK:31
hehe.. and guess wat.. when its making money.. ppl start to copy.. 1 example i found on the web is http://www.farmpixels.com/ walaneh.. copy 99 and selling at $0.50/pixels. *sohems*
