Internet Entrepreneur Is A Prisoner In His Own Garage

»  Comments | Post a Comment

Some of cyberspace’s biggest websites and the computer industry’s most powerful companies were once nothing more than a few big dreams in a small garage.

Now one Johnson City man is following the same garage-to-greatness approach made legendary by Hewlett-Packerd, Apple, and Google with his new dot com start up.

News Channel 11 introduced you on Tuesday to Eric McCarty, the founder of Fellowtip.com, and his self-induced garage lock-in. If you missed it, McCarty has vowed to stay put in his family’s garage in Johnson City until 500 new users join his forum site.

McCarty’s moved in to the small garage on Sunday. We visited a few days later to find out about the decision to set up shop in the shed, what he’s doing to pass the time and his belief that his website can one day change the world.
