One to Watch
You have to read this amazing story of a 17 year old girl entrepreneur, Ashley Qualls: Girl Power & Whateverlife.com.
An excerpt:
Whateverlife just sort of happened, another accidental Web business. Originally, Ashley created the site in late 2004 when she was 14 as a way to show off her design work. "I was the dorky girl who was into HTML," she says. It attracted zero interest beyond her circle of friends until she figured out how to customize MySpace pages. So many classmates asked her to design theirs that she began posting layouts on her site daily, several at first, then dozens.
