Arzoo Isn't

from the bye-bye dept

Now, I've never met Sabeer Bhatia, and I'm sure he's a great guy (most people who know him seem to think so), but so far he's created an online email service that never made any money until it sold out to Microsoft, and a failed "me too" play. I'm not sure that's the stuff that entrepreneurial legends are made out of.

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

      the first idea was still a good one. so simple, it's hard to believe that no one thought of web-based e:mail before the summer of '96.
