DotComGuy to Live On Web for One Year

from the stupid-web-tricks dept

Okay, this one falls into the stupidity category also. Some guy has legally changed his name to DotComGuy, and is going to live in a house which he can't leave (other than going out to the yard) for one year. He is, of course, going to survive entirely via the web. Basically, a huge publicity stunt. There have been a ton of these, but this one seems to be the biggest, and perhaps silliest.
