The Web is Too Much After a Baby is Born
from the other-things-to-concentrate-on dept
A very interesting article that points out the fact that there are many many websites focused on parents of newborn babies, but chances are very few parents actually go there. First of all, it's difficult to sit in front of a computer while holding a baby. Also, the baby keeps you pretty busy. The writer points out all the easier things it is to do with a baby. Next, she points out that the content on these sites is often very general and not helpful to her. She finds it amusing that the internet was such a useful tool when she was pregnant, but has become virtually useless now that she's a parent.
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.
