My novel Pirate Cinema is the current TechDirt Book Club selection, and we're kicking it off today with a Google+ hangout in about five minutes. I've never done a Hangout before -- I don't have a G+ account because I object to its "real names" policy, but I've created a throwaway account for the occasion.

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.

    There are two Cory Doctorow accounts on G+ though…

    Didn’t Google Plus reverse this policy a while ago? Also, are you boycotting Boing Boing’s comment system too? It asks me for identifying information to post this comment.

      We don’t require you to use a real name or anything that resembles a real name.

        Have you looked at google plus recently? Either they cancelled this policy or they don’t enforce it. Meanwhile Cory’s misinformed boycott sits next to a post urging us to connect to Boingboing… on google plus and facebook. Spin it however you like but it looks like a factual error to me, at best.
