@esus Thank you! We've been discussing that. We were thinking about giving the option to pixel owners to resell their property. How does that sound? 😄
@constantout Wow, yeah I'd love to be 1st with my middle one lmao.
Your choice if you wanna add graphics, but maybe like...$100 for the rick roll spot 😆
@entreeden Yes! It's a big part of internet history and we wanted to bring it back with a fresh spin. 😀
2023 version of the Million Dollar Homepage, it's a smart and well-executed move, the kind that people would despise on Hackernews because they're jealous they didn't do it themselves.
Have fun with the launch guys!
@gael_de_mondragon Thanks! This is not meant to be a serious and complicated project. We hope that people have as much fun with it as we did building it.
Btw, great to see you on the board! 😄
lol, some dude did this in 2000 and made a million bucks because he charged a dollar a pixel. gl guy!
@kingromstar Yes, the million dollar homepage! Legendary story in the internet. 😄
This is so dumb. I like it. I hope we can change the image in the pixel later? Because I was furiously spending ma money before the square pieces are gone :D Need to swap out some images later.
@will_works They were selling out really fast! Thanks for the support, Will.
@constantout oh nooo.... i am getting trapped by your fomo campaign haha congratulations on the launch!
Congrats with the launch guys, it was fun to watch you around Twitter hustling with pixels!
Good luck!!
@joy_eom It went better than expected, considering we got featured much later than everyone else. 😄
@esus Haha, thanks Esus! I wonder how many people clicked on that pixel already. 😄
@olive_haus Thank you! We were thinking of making it possible for current owners to sell their property, instead of expanding.
We're still discussing it and will announce it soon!
@thehighsecond You can reach out to change mistakes or set up new domain, if the project moved to a new URL. But you should think on what to place there, as this is what will stay in the history. 😄
@constantout Ha, I just selected black for now. I will think and get in touch to replace the pixel image.
Great product. But I want to understand why people pay for a pixel. Can someone tell me psychology behind this?
@sanjaygodara Thanks! It's mainly to have fun, to show your product or anything else to the world. It's like an ad spot for $1.
@navinpeiris Thanks, Navin! Didn't know you were a pixel enjoyer as well. 😄
@thomashalbritter Very happy to hear that! Was it with just one pixel or did you claim multiple ones?
