I'm reading The Future Does Not Compute by Stephen L. Talbott, the editor of NETFUTURE. Thus far it's an excellent book for those who'd look at what community is and how we interact with technology, he manages to avoid the whining that pervades so many anti-media writers. Quote of the day:

"What hope is there for peace and human rights when I conceive the barriers separating me from my fellows to be mere obstructions on a network technology diagram rather than the powers of darkness shadowing my own heart?"

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
