Internet Execs have just as little a clue as the rest of us
from the silly-execs dept
Salon has a wrapup of the Industry Standard's conference in which it seems execs made lots of jokes about themselves, but didn't do very much productive. The fact is that no one really knows what's going on. Some folks are just luckier than others, and some folks know how to capitalize on luck better than others. That's about what counts for net-smarts these days.
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
