Jan 08 2008

I joined EntreCard recently and noticed that there are some significant visitors coming to my site. I am not quite sure of the effect of this EntreCard in bringing traffic to my blog, but I thing I do know is that through this online community, I stumbled upon this post of Young Rich Internet Entrepremeurs Under 30s. I find it inspirational and would like my readers to be inspired also.

Why are they all from the US? Is there any particular reason/s. Why arnt there a single internet millionare (just 1 million ringgit) from Malsysia? I notice the common denominator is that all of them are internet savvy and are full-time hooked to the net. I also think its the culture of these bunch of poeple to eat, sleep and breathe internet all the time. Another thing, youngsters are incredibly intuitive, like they take to playing online games like duck to water. thus tooling around in the bloggosphere or the net or hacking comes just naturally to them. And I strongly believe many of them are loners and only network with their peers thru the web. Do you think we can be like them? (loner part excepted).

You are right about them being westerners than asians. This list is only specifically for young internet entrepreneurs making into the top millionaires. Of course they have all to be internet savvy to be internet entrepreneurs, shouldn’t they? To your comment that they are mostly loners, I bet to differ. Many of them of chatting away in blogspheres or MSN or such social networks that we can’t even fathom. Perhaps they have more cyber friends than physical ones. That I will strongly concur. Thank you for your active comment my friend.
