Technology Revolutions-Evolutions
from the is-it-that-time-of-the-cycle? dept
With the dot com hype the past few years and the recent negative hype, a lot of people have been missing the subtle changes that have been occurring around us. Companies have actually been using Internet technologies to transform a lot of their business processes and increase efficiency. There is no such thing as the paperless office yet but relatively speaking the adoption of electronic media has far outweighed that of paper. The new economy has been transforming businesses, we just tend to forget how old technology usage takes relatively longer to cease (in the classic adoption curve).
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
