I just got the link to a website most interesting. http://www.removemybox.com/ features the image of an attractive, nude woman, from the waist up and the lips down. “So what?!” you may say, “The internet is full of naked women!” The difference here is the gotcha; there is a censor box over her chest and people can then pay a dollar a pixel to have the box removed. There are 100,000 pixels altogether, so essentially she is asking for $100,000 to take her top off. I know that sounds crazy and absurd; but, frankly, I think it is a brilliant idea. I remember when the Million Dollar website came around. I thought to myself “Honestly, who would pay for that?”. Then when people did pay for that, I thought “God, I’m an idiot, why didn’t I think of that?” The extra-brilliant thing is, if this site goes viral it could segue into other money making opportunities (Messrs. Hefner and Flynt do love getting pictures of in vogue people). Time will tell.
