Gibson really on the net


William Gibson is actually on the net, with his own weblog (via Adam Wendt). Blimey. I remember when he stayed off the net because (a) he only understood typewriters and (b) he’d get fanboyed too much. Still, I suppose that Mona Lisa Overdrive was a long time ago now. If Gibson was the poster-child for the hackers in my generation, who’ll be there for the new up-and-coming techies? What should I be reading now that’s going to make me believe in the power of all this as much as Neuromancer and Count Zero did?
