The Young Dot Com Entrepreneurs Are Back
from the and-getting-younger dept
A nice story about an 11-year-old girl who has built her own dot com (she was eight when it started) to sell little stuffed animals, PuterBabies, that sit on top of your computer. The company is just starting to break-even. There are some amusing stories about the family helping out, and how she sometimes kicks her father out of meetings because, as she says, "I'm the president and he's not."
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
