Nice.
Thanks for the link, I will definitely look it over.

I keep recommending Accelerando [1] by Charles Stross which is very good 
with lots of CS related stuff.  It was nominated for a Hugo award, and 
so is his latest novel Glasshouse. Speaking of which, this year's 
Worldcon is being held in Yokohama where they will be presenting the 
actual awards.[2]  Most of the nominated short stories, novelettes and 
even full novels are available on the web [3].
If anyone wants to go I am currently contemplating to shell out for the 
membership and would heartily welcome any companions. Please email me 
off list if you are planning to attend.
