Crazy ideas do work

Haven't had anything to write about recently, but I felt I better post something so that the pictures of the naked virtual women will be off the front page... Not a very good impression to give new blog visitors...

Anyways, here's some more inspiration for people who think that their business ideas are too crazy to work - The Million Dollar Home page. It was started by a British guy, Alex Tew, aged 21, who wanted to make a million dollars fast (now don't we all...). So he started a website, and sold each pixel on the website for $1. He earned a million dollars in 4 MONTHS. He was recently in the news for being a target of hackers who demanded $50,000, if not they would launch an attack on his site.

I must say that the site is extremely gimmicky, and probably wouldn't last long as a viable business... but heck, its a million dollars in 4 months! Well, the point here is if you have an idea, no matter how crazy it is, you'll never know if it'll take off or not until you do it.

Yes, I always have to prep myself to quickly page down when I visit your blog at work.

As for the Million Dollar Homepage, of course it worked! The idea is from someone named Alex!!

I think I'll start "The Million Dollar Porn Page".....
