Fri, 26 Oct 2007 14:12:48 +0000 http://mpl3rs.wordpress.com/2007/10/08/68/#comment-28 I have not read this book yet, but it sounds like an interesting concept. It would probably make for a good film if done right. I think it's an appropriate time for a book like this to come out. One: because of the paranoia associated with consumer tracking, computer chip implants, hidden surveillance cameras and so on. And two: because it seems like a possible sci-fi prediction of where technology could be heading. The stereotypical teenager (or adult) is plugged into so many different "feeds" of information, communication and stimulation. Whether it's chatting, texting, ipods, television, online gaming, online shopping, cell phones, blogging, or e-mail. People don't even really think about it anymore because we're so used to it - until something happens like a power outtage and then we realize how much we rely on all that technology. :) I have not read this book yet, but it sounds like an interesting concept.

There are a few questions left unanswered, but aren't great books ones that make you think? Next up: The Intruders. Stay tuned......
