Title: Still relevant...
Review: It's odd that something written about the Internet four years ago would still be relevant today, considering how fast the 'net has evolved and exploded, but it's true - Silicon Snake Oil remains every bit an apt commentary and reality check today as it was when it was written. I had first read it back in 1995, and just last week skimmed through it again. True, a lot of the details are outdated and history has (almost comically) outdone even Stoll's most outlandish predictions, but the book should nevertheless be read and digested for its humorous and interesting presentation of a serious viewpoint. I'm just wondering what Mr. Stoll would say now, given the extraordinary events of the past few years...
