Weird Tech: Pizza.com to go. $3 million? I'll take it!

Pick a credit card, any credit card

Everyone knows that bad things happen when men are let loose online with their credit cards. But does it seriously get any worse / better than this? Apparently someone has blown a whacking $3 million (£1.5 million) on a pizza - or more specifically the domain name pizza.com after a furious bidding war. The anonymous winner secured the domain from tech entrepreneur Chris Clark who paid a princely $20 (£10) for the domain back in 1994 - making him one of the luckiest / cleverest man alive.

There's no suggestion that the winner was anything but a picture of fortitude, maturity and sobriety, but other men are lot less lucky. A report this week concluded than men are much more likely to get conned online that women and tend to blow enormous piles of money on gadgets and other fripperies. It's a good job then we just won the Nigerian lottery. Mr President, you should have our bank details now.
