What's Become of Pointcast: EntryPoint
from the the-excitement-never-ends dept
Idealab which spent more money than it should have on Pointcast, and then combined it with its eWallet software is doing away with all the branding work that's been done before, and are set to launch EntryPoint a new application that has a little bit of each product in there. I'm still not exactly sure why Pointcast was needed for this. I'm also not sure I fully understand the point of EntryPoint, but we'll see.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.
