Student To Use Web For Free Trip Round The World
from the silly-stunts dept
A Dutch student set up a website saying he wanted to travel around the world and asked people to offer to put him up for a night and many people have. The Register isn't too happy with the concept and expect many other students to start copying the idea. Of course, you have no idea if any of the people who offer to put the guy up are psychotic. And, hell, the student himself could be psychotic.
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
