In a further demonstration that people can use the Internet for just about anything, One Red Paperclip is a blog about a guy who offered someone a red paperclip in exchange for something else, with the eventual goal of acquiring a house.

He started out with a paperclip, and traded that for a fish pen. Then, he traded the fish pen for a doorknob, the doorknob for a stove, and so on.

Now he’s up to a year’s rent in Phoenix, and the offers for that include a 1991 chevy blazer, a 24 hour topless lap dance and a 30 second TV commercial.
