Worried About Y2K? Get A Life.
from the great-titles dept
Stewart Alsop writes an interesting column about the whole Y2K thing. While the whole column is fairly interesting, I think the title makes the column great. I tend to agree with him too, even though I've seen no evidence either way. At least, I hope he's right, and I hope that more people think like him, so that we don't have a ridiculous panic at the end of '99 that turns the whole Y2K thing into a self-fulfilling prophecy.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.
