John Doerr Still Has Some Fire Burning
from the not-burnt-out dept
At a venture capital panel last night, John Doerr, who has large remained hidden since the collapse of the dot com bubble, came out with a tirade about why expensing stock options would be a terrible idea. While he's been staying quiet, it seems that he still stands up for what he believes in - and he still swears by the companies he's invested in.
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
