How young is too young to change the world? Do you know exactly what it means—every time you use your credit card, every time you log onto a website, every time you swipe your metro card, every time you walk into a public space … do you know who's watching you? Cory Doctorow explores these questions and more in the novel Neil Gaiman calls "A wonderful, important book," and Brian K. Vaughan dubs "A worthy younger sibling to Orwell's 1984."
Cory Doctorow is an activist, teacher, public speaker, and technology expert. He is a co-editor of Boing Boing.net, one of the most popular blogs in the world and recipient of more than three million unique visitors per month, and a columnist for publications ranging from Information Week to The Guardian.

Combine with…
What?Q: What is this feature for/why is it necessary? A: Because LibraryThing draws from so many different libraries, it can't enforce a single name for a given author. "Also known as" lets LibraryThing users combine author's names easily, so collections match up and everything runs smoothly. Q: Can I combine with an author not suggested above? A: Yes you can. Q: I know an author is separate, but some infernal idiot keeps combining them. Can I take a name off the combination list? A: Yes you can. Look up! Everything in the "Combine with..." section now has a link to "never combine." Use this feature wisely. "Marc Twain" may be idiotic, but misspelling should still be combined. "Mark Twain" and "Edward Gibbon" should not. Q: What authors have already been slated to "never combine" with this author? A: No authors. Q: I am the infernal idiot and I'm right! A: Take it to the Combiners group.Q: What if this author is really two authors? A: We're working on a solution, but if you want you can post a brief disambiguation notice in the Common Knowledge section. Become a member to do this. Is this you?If you're an author, consider becoming an official LibraryThing Author. |
