Over on Boing Boing Gadgets, our Joel's found this smashing ad for Honeywell electronic mail from the dawn of time. I think that around the time this ad ran, I was still riding my bicycle around the Honeywell parking garage around the corner from our house in suburban Toronto. I remember thinking at the time that Honeywell must make something to do with beekeeping.

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.
