Priceline.com To Reverse Auction Long Distance Calls
from the they'll-reverse-auction-anything dept
Priceline.com continues to try to figure out ways to reverse auction anything. Last week they started groceries, and now they plan to reverse auction long distance calls. I know people like to find cheap phone rates, but do they really want to go through the hassle of figuring out how long they want to spend on the phone and then reverse bidding for a price for that particular phone call?
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.
