eTailing Not Dead Yet

from the you-just-need-to-know-where-to-look dept

A very good column in atNewYork about the internet and e-tailing specifically. Basically, the claim is not to forget about it altogether. There are some good things that have come out of it. It takes a close look at Amazon and eBay and explains why Amazon might be in trouble, but eBay is still in a great position.

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

    eBay

    it's a good piece. it points out the most useful product of what has sprung from our universal, unrelenting struggle to create new systems and paradigms. I believe eBay is changing the very fabric of our democracy.
