I can't believe how differently I feel about it now. I think I was just frustrated at my own shortcomings in executing the coolestmillion site. Thank you for your response, Brian - you are so totally right. The internet is a huuuuge place, and I've developed an appreciation for that. I DO acknowledge the possibility that both sites are totally original, because it definitely is possible. I feel really bad for that last comment, but I guess it's nice to see that I've grown a bit since then. I'll get back to America in a couple months, and then maybe I'll reawaken Coolest Million. Either way, the web is a big enough place for both sites to fill up and succeed. :) Jeremy Haha, wow, almost a year has passed since my whiny, immature comment a few up on this thread.

Well, the web is a big place... I honestly had never heard of your site. And I likely might never have heard of the Awesome site either if Jim hadn't let me know about it. There is something to be said for old-fashioned networking, I guess. Good luck with Coolest Million. :) Hey Jeremy. Well, the web is a big place… I honestly had never heard of your site.

Good luck with Coolest Million. :)

We put it on the web, but we haven't quite finished the design, so we haven't fully publicized it yet. Our idea was simple: a one million person club, anyone can sign up for $1, we show the most recent people on the front page, we issue certificates of Coolness, and a few other features. About a month later, AwesomeMillion.com has appeared with...some uncanny similarities to our site. (They did come up with the word "Awesome" on their own.) I guess this is how competition works. To the fellas over at AwesomeMillion.com - On the incomprehensible chance that your idea is actually as original as you claim it to be, congratulations. Either way, I wish you the best of luck. : | -Jeremy Chapman Co-Founder, CoolestMillion.com One interesting note:

We try to keep the risque to a bare minimum at Knickers as the focus is on lingerie information and shopping -- my mom reads the site, so I can't post anything too racy!
