Dark Fiber This is less of a review and more of an ego trip.
Today I went to the Red Emma's bookstore and am browsing around in the technology section when I pick up a book I've never seen before called "Dark Fiber." The book is about internet culture and was published by MIT press in 2002. I'm flipping through it when suddenly I realize that I'm reading an entire page about me. Literally all of page 142 is cited quotes from my website about the Swatch Protest and Boycott in 1999 in relation to Swatch's concept of Internet Time.
That made me so happy that I urge everyone to buy the book. I haven't bought it yet because then there wouldn't be a book about me in the store, but you can go there to get your copy or get it from my Amazon link. I can say that at the very least the author picks very good primary sources.
