            <title>Pay-For-Pixel Ad Fad Gets Creative</title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>Reach way back into your Internet pop culture memory banks for this one. Remember <strong>Alex Tew</strong> -- the British college student who successfully raised $1 million by selling pixels on his Web site? Once buzz started building about <a href="http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com/">MillionDollarHomepage.com</a>, advertisers scrambled to slap their logo on the page.</p>

<p>There have been a number of copycats since Tew launched his site in August 2005, all hoping to strike it rich by selling image-based links. But earlier this month, a new, creative entry appeared on the scene -- <a href="http://www.MillionDollarsOutOfMyButt.com">MillionDollarsOutOfMyButt.com</a>.</p>

<p>The site, created by a St. Louis team (whose self-purported specialties include "Web design, snide commentary, and innovative problem solving"), is offering ad space at $1 per pixel with a hundred dollar minimum. So far, there's plenty of room on the page, so step right up.</p>

<p>Site owners <strong>Daniela Droke</strong> and <strong>Shawn Gaston</strong> devised the site as a way to minimize their student loan and credit card debt. The page features a photo of Droke's blue-jeaned derriere and provides an answer the humorous question: "How are we going to pay all these bills?"</p>]]></description>
