My favorite sentence: "He also wrote a book on the internet in 1992 that was never published, based on the belief that the online phenomenon would be over by 1993."
That picture isn't even from Silicon Valley; it's S.F.

I think that sentence is incorrect. Rushkoff's first book Cyberia was apparently completed in 1992 but not published until 1994 because the publisher initially believed that that the Internet, email, etc. was a fad that would pass.
