clever idea - I question the longevity though. Pretty soon EVERYBODY (including those daft enough to pay for a pixel) would get bored.

Fair play to the individual though - it's gonna take alot of dedication to maintain the interest factor....

Cannot beleive this page....total madness

Who would pay for one of those pixels....and no, plesae don't tell me that people already have. We have no way of knowing whether they have actually paid or not, or if he is just trying to show that "other people" have done, therefore so should you

Sorry, but I don't get it either. Why does one buy a pixel? What does it get you?

Guess it has geek appeal, to have your little space on some 'unique' website.

UPDATE - apparently he's doing quite well

http://technology.guardian.co.uk/onl...577301,00.html

though I'm not sure how 300 adverts at $100 each equates to £56 000 - to me, it equates to about $30 000 which is ITRO £20k.
EDIT - just looked at it, some of the ads are a lot bigger than one square, so that's that

Still, that covers his average student debt, which is what he intended

Yes, each square is 10x10 pixels, 1 square = 100 pixels. Theres 10,000 squares on the page.

Can't believe he's nudging 150,000 pixels sold now, he'll be laughing all the way to the bank!
