William Gibson's blog

I've been reading a novel , Pattern Recognition, by William Gibson lately. It's not what I expected and I'm looking forward to reading his other books. I suppose it technically falls into the genre of science fiction, but it transcends genre for me. It's smart and crisp and engaging. He's the guy who invented the term cyberspace, and this book has to do with intrigue on the Internet and how it intersects with the non-virtual lives of the book's characters. Here's a link to his books at the Powells Books site:

His website is pretty much bottomless. I tried to upload a wonderful video from April 2009, but Gaia doesn't want me to upload anything but Youtube, apparently. But if you go to the Vimeo website and search for "Stand by Me/Playing for Change/Song Around the World" I think you'll find it. Here's a link to Vimeo:

In the meantime, here's a link to Gibson's website.
