Make a million pixel by pixel

Don't you just wish you thought of it first? The ingenious money making idea thought up by Alex Tew a 21 year old student consists of a webpage containing one million pixels of advertising space. He has sold the lot at a price of $1 per pixel. He calls his money spinning creation "The Million Dollar Homepage" and you can view it by clicking here. NB. The website has been so busy that now you can hardly get through to see what it looks like, I reckon their server has gone into meltdown. However, if you want to see an example of how it works then look here and click on the demo button.

Fuel prices creeping up - use technology to keep costs down

I notice that fuel prices are creeping up again. It is unlikely to get better noting todays news "Britain recorded its worst-ever monthly goods trade deficit during November as the oil account slipped into the red for the fifth month running." An article in Martins Money Tips points out a new website where you can sign up for free and easily locate the lowest cost petrol stations in your area. You can even opt-in to receive email alerts for your desired postcode. Check it out - click here

The Big Sunday - coming to a place near us soon

The London Borough of Newham are holding its biggest ever free community event on Sunday 5th February 2006 and they want you, your family and friends to come along.

The Big Sunday will take place at the ExCeL exhibition centre in Newham's Royal Docks. The event is being organised by Newham Civic Partnership.

It's going to be a fantastic day, with something for everyone. There will be celebrity acts, interactive exhibitions, displays and lots of fun and games. Admission will be completely free and we'll be running a complimentary shuttle bus service to get you there.

The purpose of the day is for you to tell us what the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games will do for you and what you can give in return. It's also to encourage you to take part in the many community schemes and activities in Newham including those linked with education, health and jobs. Click here for more info and to register.
