The Developers, a fiction novel by Ben Woods, mixes the insane and obscene with technology, romance and pop culture. But while the book's web development group tries to make its mark on the virtual world, it encounters pre-eminent issues that will soon be shaping the Internet of the future: Are individuals losing their remaining privacy due to the World Wide Web? Will online social interaction eventually replace in-person gatherings as a necessary means?
Robots invade the internets in style!
I'm sure many of you, especially those of you who are cyborgs, are familiar with the my robot friends website. Well, I have great news! The site has been redesigned with many new robots to check out. Site creator, illustrator and metal (and other materials used to make robots) lover Sean O'Connor launched the new site after burning the midnight oil. This made many of the robots angry, as they were left without vital fluids. But fortunately, Sean purchased more oil, and they are happy again.

So check out my robot friends, request a robot to be drawn or purchase a print of one of the many existing robots! Batteries not included.
