Having seen the success of the Million Dollar Homepage, one young entrepreneur is following suit with Fill My Room. Each dollar earns you a Lego block in this person's room, allowing you to... We're not quite sure what you'll be doing, actually. At least the Million Dollar Homepage allowed links back for advertisers. This would seem to be mostly a way to give this guy a lot of free Lego, although if you purchase 1,000 blocks at a time you'll get one of the ads on his home page.

If Fill My Room breaks $1,000, we'll toss in $10 of bricks ourselves—as long as we can be promised our bricks will always stay on top.

While Lego experts are probably well-acquainted with Peeron.com's extensive database of Lego models, it's a fantastic place to start for the Lego layman. In addition to housing building manuals for a good chunk of old sets and the catalogs released worldwide, they provide current Amazon.com Lego sales, Lego associated RSS feeds and a parts tracker that keeps hold of the pieces you have in your collection.

Peeron stirs up fond memories of your first sets—mine being the Space Command Center (493) and its supporting cast, save the Space Shuttle (442), which mysteriously flew off the shelves of the Clark AFB PX. I vaguely remember being very pissed off about that.
