El Salvador Paper Jumps On The Net
from the ahead-of-their-time dept
The largest newspaper in El Salvador is now available on Web enabled phones and the Palm organizer. This may not seem like news, but only 1% of the population even has Web access, much less wireless Web access. I think it's great, however, that the newspaper has taken this step. They take a leadership role in bringing Net access to their country and also perhaps help bring their content to other Westerners who may find their content an interesting read while sitting on a bus or waiting for a plane.
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
