This KK (Kevin Kelley) guy seems super cool. I just browsed the rest of the site. Turns out he wrote that "New Rules For The New Economy" book back in the 90s. Pretty much every post on The Technium that I've read has been insightful. He's even got a section of the site just dedicated to showcasing how people "reappropriate" i.e. actually use technology: https://kk.org/streetuse/ https://kk.org/streetuse/
- georgebcrawford 3y agoHe's a pretty prolific writer. He also started Wired, maybe has a podcast too? At the least he has been a guest on what seems like a million of them. Just running out the door so I can't fact check myself sorry. Thought you might like some factoids though. Have a swell day!
- karaterobot 3y agoHe's also one of the founders of Wired, and all of his books are at least intriguing, if not always persuasive (to me). And his long-running Cool Tools blog is worth reading as well.
