Million Dollar Homepage Marketing

British student Alex Tew sells each of the million pixels for $1 each on his Milliondollarhomepage.com. The result? Almost $1 million in the 21-year-old's pocket.

Actually it now says that he has sold 999,000 pixels and only has a 1000 left, which he is now selling on Ebay, wow!
