The Internet Keeps Us Awake
from the uh...-yeah. dept
A new study says the internet is making people stay up past their bed times. Well, I can confirm it's true in my case (and if you look at my usual posting times, you won't disagree). Apparently, all those fun thing to do online are depriving people of all ages of sleep. While TV used to be the biggest temptation in making people avoid going to bed, now it's that good old internet.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.
