The Couch Potato Frontier
from the lazy-tech dept
It’s email-able, viral, a fusion between advertising and entertainment but the best part of it is that you don’t have to leave your couch. Of course it's the pocket cinema, a new video clipping type attraction that some think will win over fans of broadcasting entertainment. Sounds interesting, I’d like to see it in action and of course see if it’s any more effective at collecting advertising dollars than current forms of online media.
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
