1000 Tags: The New Million Dollar Homepage

by alec on January 11, 2006

In the vein of the million dollar homepage comes 1000 Tags.  For $25 you can buy a shared tag.  For a bunch more, you can have an exclusive tag.  I’ll bet this takes off.  I just became the first buyer of VoIP.

A double-decade veteran of product management and marketing, he spent nine years at Microsoft where he helped launch Windows 95, the first two versions of Internet Explorer, the Universal Plug and Play initiative, the push into home markets, opt-in email marketing and what might well go down in history as the very first direct email list ever.

If you don't mind sharing, how much traffic have you received from 1000tags so far?
Thanks.

launched after 1000tags, tagterms puts a whole new twist on the idea of using tag clouds as a UI to present data to the end user.
