The Power of Technology is That in The End It Trumps All.
It's Time People Realized That The Drudge Report Is A Major Media Property Worth Hundreds Of Millions Of Dollars Read more: http://www.businessinsider.com/drudge-report-is-worth-2012-10#ixzz292eyEwur I'm neither a fan nor a reader of the Drudge Report and but I posted this article to highlight some fascinating demographics, statistics about how technology eventually triumphs over all in a wholly glaring way well demonstrated when comparing the Drudge Report and the New York Times. This is a prime example of how the internet has eclipsed the msm, overwhelmingly underscoring the incredible synergistic power, productivity inherent in technology, technological advances. Not just merely the application of Moore's Law, but what Moore's Law has wrought from both the macro-cosmic perspective in its effect on society, civilization, modernity and microcosmically as well with its impact on, for the individual, the ever-expanding control, empowerment over the realm, environment inhabited. For what is technology, the purpose of technology but a tool, a tool to expand power, influence, over the environment to ultimate infinite control. The Drudge Report recently announced that it has surpassed 1 billion pageviews per month. How many pageviews is that? It's about as many pageviews as The New York Times reportedly got per month as recently as a couple of years ago. The Drudge Report has 14.4 million US readers per month — only slightly fewer readers than The New York Times (16.4 million), per Quantcast. In short, the Drudge Report is almost as big a digital media property as The New York Times. That's absolutely staggering. Why? Because The New York Times is produced by ~1,200 journalists. The Drudge Report is produced by one.
