DigiScents Scores Big Name Fragrance Backers
from the please-please-tell-me-this-is-a-big-April-Fools-joke dept
From the very beginning I've believed that DigiScents was a hoax. Who the hell wants a system attached to their computer that will help them "smell" the internet? Anyway, they've apparently suckered in two major "fragrance" manufactures who will be giving them money. I really do hope it's a huge hoax. That would be a lot more fun than having to deal with "damn, that web page really stinks".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.
