DailyDirt: The Itsy Bitsy Spiders

from the urls-we-dig-up dept

Spiders are fascinating little creatures. There are over 40,000 different spider species, and these 8-legged little guys are found all over the world. If spiders aren't your thing, read no further. But if you've ever scooped one up to let it outside instead of killing it immediately, here are a few links on spiders that you might want to visit. By the way, StumbleUpon can recommend some good Techdirt articles, too.

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

    What's with the fascination with spiders here?

    I like spiders as much, or as little, as the next person, but Techdirt doesn't seem like the right place to read up on htem.

    Having said that, I'm glad to know that people don't swallow EIGHT SPIDERS w/o knoing it, EVERY year.......

    Talk is cheap.

    Sigh.the sad thing is, they will talk a good game. But their actions will still show that they are only concerned about following the money. Remember, I believe in change. And the only change I have seen, is my heart breaking at the corruption in our nation. What happened?
