About:Taking back the world, one hacked game console at a time ...

Have you ever felt like the technology you love could be used against you? Or that the government is watching you .. a little too closely? Have you ever felt like you just had to skip school? Do you hate bullies? Have you ever felt the call to fight back- and that the fight was waaaay bigger than just you?

So, apparently, my story's been written by this Cory Doctorow guy. He seems like a pretty stand-up hombre and he has a blog at http://www.craphound.com (and http://www.boingboing.net which he co-edits).

His publisher also has your typical corporate site at:
http://www.tor-forge.com/littlebrother

Haha this is just awesome. Read little brother (good book btw) and was watching someones video here, and saw your name pop up in the creds. I was surprised, then went on a hunch and searched you! This is awesome. Wonder if there is a M1k3y...

Are you really Cory Doctorow? The book Little Brother is so GREAT! The only thing missing from the book is how to make a burning laser and how to pick locks.

He is Bruce Shneiner. (I think thats how you spell it)

M4industries says: Mar 3, 2010. 5:52 PM

All of his books are free in nearly all online formats

I love Little Brother! I swear, I've read the book so many times I'm gonna have it memorized soon! I got just a tad paranoid after reading it, but of course that's unavoidable. This is the only book I've ever read more than twice. Usually, I read a book and I can't stand it again. But Ive read it about 20 times now. Also, it's kinda creepy, but all my friends say my personality matches up with Marcus's perfectly. I don't think so, but Van, Jolu, and Darryl remind me so much of my best friends from school, and Ange reminds me of my girlfriend. All these Instructables are awesome!

I think this Instructables page is also appropriate here:

http://www.instructables.com/id/Build-your-own-laptop/

I haven't tried it out yet, but it definitely looks like a project that w1n5t0n would know a thing or two about.

Cheers
