« Vodafone debuts Vodafone Live for 3G | Main | Samsung to increase three megapixel camera phone modules from four million to eight million per month »
Thank you Dennis Hettema of camera phone systems integrator OP3 for pointing me to this Scott Adams "Dilbert" cartoon about banning camera phones.
The "evil director of human resources" bans camera phones. An employee complains, "My new cellphone will be rendered useless for no good reason. And you aren't even banning regular cameras!!"
The evil human resources director then takes a photo -- with a digital camera -- of the employee turning purple!

Charles Stross: Accelerando
Spectacular. Near-singularity and during-singularity Earth (and beyond). Was waiting for a novel like this. Sort of a fictional companion to "The Singularity is Near."
Julian Barnes: Arthur and George
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and an English vicar in a detective novel based on real events. Interesting.
Umberto Eco: Foucault's Pendulum
Started this several times but will finish it now. Excellent so far.
Mark Z. Danielewski: House of Leaves
Very strange story-within-a-story. I like it so far, but it's definitely not for readers of conventional story lines.
China Mieville: Iron Council
China Mieville writes some of the most amazing fantasy I've ever read. This is spectacular stuff. He also has an amazing vocabulary, and I'm often looking up words; it's ripe for reading on the Kindle because of the dictionary feature, but I'm waiting at least for v2.0.
Richard K. Morgan: Market Forces
The near future, where corporations rule the world and knock off executives in automobile death matches. I prefer Morgan's other more science fictionish novels.
Adam Felber: Schrodinger's Ball: A Novel
Fun and quirky. Any novel that incorporates a dead physicist and a dead/non-dead character -- both of whom wander around as part of the plot -- peaks my interest.
William Faulkner: The Sound and the Fury
Bought this more than 30 years ago and finally reading it. Don't think I like it, classic or not.
I was looking for this comic strip to send to my friends. I really liked it.
