It seems that you've been living two lives. One life, you're Thomas A. Anderson, program writer for a respectable software company. You have a social security number, pay your taxes, and you... help your landlady carry out her garbage. The other life is lived in computers, where you go by the hacker alias "Neo" and are guilty of virtually every computer crime we have a law for. One of these lives has a future, and one of them does not.
My favorite part of Stand on Zanzibar is when he talks about the "muckers". These are people who because of the pressure of overpopulation run amuck and kill peoople. Hmmm...sounds like Columbine....Michigan....California 101....
I'm glad the president of the ALA has noticed blogging...finally. Meanwhile everyone is moving on to podcasting.
Actually one of the blogs I read regularly is by a librarian, The Shifted Librarian, and she has a very different view of blogs and how libraries should be using them.
I want one for my car so that when I'm driving my MiniCooper on the freeway and a Cadillac Escalade is drifting over on me because the driver is having an antimated conversation on their cell phone I can terminate the call and make them pay attention to their driving.
We are not smart salamanders.....are we not men?
What is the law!
Not to walk on all fours...

Tech Stocks Tumble

Oh please. This is a website that covers information from a wide variety of sources that are of interest to geeks. Yes the stock market is probably of interest to people who work in tech companies, but frankly if you want to follow the stock market then cough up some money and get a subscription to the Interactive Edition of the Wall Street Journal. I also follow several mountain bike and skating web sites and I don't expect them to cover the stock market either.
I fully support not covering the stock market in this forum. As for technical people with stock options who just saw the bottom drop out, grow up. The market is about risk and reward...that means winners and losers. Suck it up losers.
Nanotechnology is coming. Smaller faster computers are arriving now. Maybe it's time too look down the slippery slope before we jump on our snowboards and see if there are some gnarly ass trees with the human race's name all over it. http://wfmh.org.pl/enginesofcreation/EOC_Web_Intro duction.html "The frontline is everywhere."
