About Techdirt.
Started in 1997 by Floor64 founder Mike Masnick and then growing into a group blogging effort, the Techdirt blog uses a proven economic framework to analyze and offer insight into news stories about changes in government policy, technology and legal issues that affect companies' ability to innovate and grow.
The dynamic and interactive community of Techdirt readers often comment on the addictive quality of the content on the site, a feeling supported by the blog’s average of 1.5 million visitors per month, 65,000+ posts and more than 1.4 million comments. Both Business Week and Forbes have awarded Techdirt with Best of the Web thought leader awards.
You can also find Techdirt on Twitter and Facebook.

What’s under the hood?
Hosted at ActionWeb, we use PHP, Apache, and MySQL. In addition, we use some great icons from the fine folks at famfamfam and aquaticus, and, finally, jQuery makes us quite happy.
