Krypton Amakon by Neil Stevenson

Neil Stevenson clearly knows a lot about computers and I mean there's something in the afterward where he talks about like writing computer generated comic book basically. The creator of Google Earth was influenced by this book because there's the whole thing about like the earth program with which you can use to see anything anywhere in the world. It embodies that um Silicon Valley hacker mentality in ways that are very interesting, Sam says.
