Remember the success of the Million Dollar Homepage?

    Got it from here

    Remember the success of the Million Dollar Homepage? Some clever students over at Sandberg Institute have taken it a step further, by launching Artvertising - The Million Dollar Facade Project. Instead of pixels on a screen, they are selling tile space off a huge building in the heart of Amsterdam. The project is getting a ton of press, and has attracted the big dogs in advertising like Nike and Apple. What million dollar space idea will they think of next?

    I thought this is interesting :) Mods feel free to delete it ;)

    It's refreshing to see someone come up with a new idea rather than jumping on the bandwagon and copying the exact same idea. Good luck to them.

    now you can find the scrip that does just this for under 5 bucks. However I don't think anyone will ever catch the expectation of the original

    Which is why I decided to take a totally different approach to the idea myself ;)

    Would anyone enjoy driving past this building every day? I wonder how many wrecks it's caused.
