million dollar web page

4 months ago in August, a college student in England decides to raise money for school. He takes his home page, divides it into a million pixels, and sells pixels for $1 each in groups of 100. After selling $1000 worth, he starts to issue press releases. Large corporations buy space and find its a great use of their advertising dollar. He's out of pixels, a million dollars richer, and hes getting job offers and approached by investors.
