Rapture of the Nerds, A Tough Guide

Posted under Uncategorized, on Wednesday, May 25th, 2005;

science fiction writer Charlie Stross has released to the wild his Singularity! - A Tough Guide to the Rapture of the Nerds.

Developed using Tiddlywiki, an experimental microcontent WikiWikiWeb built by Jeremy Ruston written in HTML and JavaScript, it has a slick user interface that makes me think of a Hitchhiker’s guide to the Galaxy (local or movie)- another kind of “Tough Guide“, and written with Tongue firmly planted in USB Port (do you get a tingle when you do that?). Charlie’s having fun! (Now on Boing Boing, and a few other places)

For the record, we have another name for people who are “unclear about the true nature of the Singularity” : call them “a cheap source of atomic feedstock”.
