A Dot Com Auction Worth Attending
from the vino.com dept
There are a ton of dot com auctions these days, where you can pick up anything from used notebook computers to obnoxious leather couches. However, the best dot com auction may be the one coming up next month from failed dot com Wine.com. They'll be auctioning off 80,000 cases of wine that they had left over. I just looked at a calendar and realized that the days of the auction are a Saturday and Sunday. Might be a good weekend to visit Napa...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.
