The essays collected in this book are sparkling, imaginative pieces of journalism that just happen to be about technology. People steeped in the world of AJAX or Massively Mulitplayer Online Games will find a lot to value here, but so will readers simply in search of good writing.James Fallows, National Correspondent for Atlantic MonthlyThe human experience is being shaped by our symbiotic relationship to technology. What makes this collection wonderful is that its not about the technology, per se, but its about this changing human experience. I will look forward to it every year.Po Bronson, author of What Should I Do With My Life?The Best of Technology Writing 2006 brings together some of the most important, timely, and just plain readable writing in the fastpaced, highstakes field of technology. The first annual collection to target this vibrant and versatile area, The Best of Technology Writing 2006 features innovative work from an unusually diverse array of writers: bestselling authors, noted academics, and indie journalists and bloggers. The culmination of an open, online nominating process, this collection covers topics ranging from jetpacks, to the ethics of genetically cloned pets, to the meaning of life in the information age. By turns epic and intimate, serious and playful, The Best of Technology Writing 2006 captures the vitality, importance, and complexity of technology today.
