Ink on Paper Going Away
from the bye-bye dept
Despite what the writer says here I don't find it surprising that reporters are predicting that ink-on-newsprint publishing is going away. Considering that I pretty much only read news online and have noticed I tend to look at newspapers as an archaic device, I'm still not sure that it will ever completely go away. A lot may depend on things like how web pads or digital ink turn out.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
