Yet Another Silicon Valley Documentary

from the oh-no,-not-again dept

So, let's see, there's Center of the World which is a movie about a dot commer obsessed with a stripper, there's Startup.com, a documentary following the rise and fall of GovWorks, there's an unnamed documentary about Kozmo.com, and now, we find out there's a documentary about the Secrets of Silicon Valley. Mostly it looks like this is about the immigrants that are used to put together high tech products, in contrast to all the hype, attention, and money the khaki-clad dot commers made. I think people are already tired of hearing about Silicon Valley, and this self-pity stuff probably isn't going to help much.

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

    How's about a documentary on the Silicon Valley about the Silicon Valley, not some self-absorbed movie about people struggling to get ahead -- or someone elses point of view of the silicon valley. I just want to see facts, thats all.

    Im not tired of hearing about the location if i hear about something worth hearing about. Make me give a fuck about this place.
