JPod…the latest Douglas Coupland book

Posted by Mick (SplaTT) Stanic under: Geek Culture .

Four days…thats what it took me to read Douglas Couplands latest book “JPod” (wikipedia entry)…and its brilliant :)

One of his earlier books (and the first one of his that i read), Microserfs, (read the original Wired short story from Jan 1994) is one of my favourite books of all time and JPod is up there with it in my rankings so i highly recommend that you go out and buy both of them if you don’t already have them.

The website they have put together for JPod is pretty cool as well…very true to the book ;)

Oh yeah…heres a small excerpt from the book and its also worth checking out both the written and the audio interviews with him as well.
