Is VC Money Drying Up?
from the doesn't-seem-like-it dept
I've been wanting to write an article like this one for a while now. This is definitely the first I've seen like it. Basically, it says that among Silicon Valley folks not much has changed despite what everyone else seems to be saying. Entrepreneurs are still creating businesses, and VCs are still desperately looking for good plans to fund. The "big changes" that everyone else talks about are either creations of the media, or people who don't know any better.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.
