Silicon Valley Has Lost The Hollywood Glitter
from the we're-so-passe dept
Phew. For a while there, I was getting scared. We can all relax, however, because Hollywood has finally realized that those of us in Silicon Valley just aren't that interesting. That's right. After years of people talking up TV shows, books, and movies about the Silicon Valley Lifestyle, entertainment moguls have realized (rightfully so) that no one (except, possibly the ex-dot com millionaires who can't let go) actually cares any more.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.
