Victoria's Secret Site Holds Up
from the making-many-people-happy dept
Last year the troubles that Victoria's Secret had with their webcast were talked about widely. It was considered both a good thing (in that it showed that this new medium could attract many visitors) and a bad thing (in that it wasn't clear the technology could handle the rush). This year, however, it appears to have gone off much better. There were still some slowdowns, but none of the major glitches of last year.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.
