http://www.unemployedloser.com/ What do you think is worse, this or the MillionDollarHomepage? They also have a section where you can become a loser and try to get visitors to give you money!!!!!! As a wise man one said....What money-making idea will people come up with next?
I saw this recently somewhere else. Hard to imagine it works, I guess thats a reward for being unique and thinking outside the box.
Last saturday I turned open my newspaper.. And what were the headlines about?? .. Aha, you guessed it... The milliondollarhomepage. So even in mainstream this is a direct hit. The article was all about how to get rich without doing anything for it. I believe the unemployedlooser is worse, but then I came accros this site www.therichjerk.com, so what's next? Maby this is something for all the losers instead of begging for money (beck)
The web is about entertainment education and commerce, not a lot else , so if you can roll all 3 up into one package your site will succeed. Conceptual marketing really is that easy..
I think it's a great idea and has huge potential. Made me laugh. Too bad about the server, he's losing money right now (even though I'd like to believe he would actually start investing his cash or do something more productive with it).
Only in the UK does this tacky BS thrive... Take a look at ebay...most of the free PSP Free IPod PS3 Xbox 360 Free Stereo Free whatever garbage comes from the UK. People in the UK love to jump on these bandwaggons or start them. The in US you atleast have to offer something substancial or useful...or percieved to be that way.
