Working Your Way through College with Pixel Advertising
Marketing Blurb loves online advertising more than the next pundit. We were bemused pixelad.jpglast fall when British student Alex Tew created a website to sell online advertising for $1 per pixel. He wanted to create a million dollar website to pay his college expenses. The media loves personal interest stories like this, and sure enough, Tew has the money and probably doesn't even need to finish his college education. This triumph is inspiring others, including a trio of Miami-area college students hoping their pixel-advertising pitch will fund their education and careers. This group is concentrating on the vertical market of real estate with a website called ownonlinerealestate.com. Advertisers can purchase pixel which correspond to the approximate location of their properties. The Miami Herald has more. Marketing Blurb is considering a refinance of the Louisiana Purchase.

I hope it works out for those guys.Alex Tew is a genius,I wish an idea of that magnitude would pop into my mind because I could do well with it at this time.

Yep, there are lots and lots and lots of variations...try this one:

I think pixel advertising is a viable advertising tool. The need is to focus on one industry. I saw this new one yesterday and think it is very interesting. BTW, I heard a rumor that Google is looking at pixel advetising as well. If so, that would break open the whole concept. IMO.
