'In 1995, a computer programmer Pierre Omidyar started auctioning off stuff
on his personal website. AuctionWeb, as it was then known, was really just a
personal project, but, when the amount of web traffic made it necessary to
upgrade to a business Internet account, Omidyar had to start charging people
fees. He actually hired his first employee to handle all the payment checks.
The site is now known as eBay.' (taken from entrepreneur.com)
Ideas do not materialize out of thin air. We need to start somewhere and once we keep moving, opportunities present themselves which we can then capitalize on!
