What's Happening With Internet 2
from the lots-of-stuff dept
I tend to forget that Internet 2 even exists, since I never hear much about it. I remember when it first launched a lot of people were very skeptical, and thought it would be an expensive failure. However, it looks like it's doing very well. Lots of universities are using it, and doing some pretty advanced stuff with it. At the same time, companies are learning from it, and basing new products on what they've learned.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.
