Chris Hassett Coming Back to Pointcast?
from the returning-to-the-scene-of-the-crime dept
News.com is reporting that Chris Hassett is exploring the possibility of buying his way back into to Pointcast. Interesting idea, as he was the founder who got ousted. Reminds me a bit of Steve Jobs, though Apple bought him back in, as opposed to the other way around. I'd be interested to see what Hassett could do, but I'd fear that this was more of a sentimental play than a well thought out move.
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.
