I was wandering around on the web when I found this curious website. It is called "9 minutes of fame" and it consists in give the users/visitors the opportunity to have 9 minutes of fame in this site. Basically, visitors submit theirs website and the website that gets selected is shown on 9minutesoffame.com during the next 9 minutes. When this 9 minute period ends, submissions are open again and the first website to be submited is the one being shown for the next period of 9 minutes.

Besides the funny part of trying it out for 1 or 2 times, there isn’t much to do on this website, other than wait 9 minutes to see what’s the next website to be displayed. But the reason why I decided to blog this was because of its originality. Nowadays when a new project is successful, lots of people start to build clones of this projects/services, so it is nice to find a completely different idea like this one.

Update: I forgot to put the link, so here it his: http://9minutesoffame.com
