Poll: Who is Alex? edit: The Pixel Guy? Both smart and lucky, I guess. No smarter that others that have failed. No luckier that non-smart people that have succeeded.
I think it's mostly luck but you gotta give the guy a lot of credit for coming up with the idea in the first place. I could've come up with the idea before he did and never made anything from it.
Its not yet any old story because bidders are bidding on last 1K pixels.Do you know the price of per pixel ?
Great marketing of an idea I would have thought not such a good one. But maybe it is smart and I am not, that would explain a lot to me! Anyway, not that I cared so far, but what I don't understand is how he marketed his site. How did it get so much coverage and advertising? Did he have to invest much or was it all free? Did he go all the way alone or did he have some partners? This I think is the lucky bit, although maybe he did plan it so well, that he would not only be smart, but also a genius and therefore he'll be even more successful in the future. We'll see, time'll tell...
