If you liked _Singularity Sky_, there's a sequel (_Iron Sunrise_) out. Stross will also be Guest Of Honor at ConCeive, a SF convention in Gothenburg next year (June 17-19).

Good to see you blogging, we were chatting on the list the other day, wondering what you are up to these days.
I just read Singularity Sky a few weeks ago, and I agree entirely with your assessment. This is a fantastic novel, worthy of Hugo consideration, IMHO. Our mutual friend Charlie deserves accolades for this one, and it was nice he mentioned us extropes as a movement, but I'm still waiting to be a character in someone's novel... ;)
Hi Mike!
Would anybody believe a novel character like you? :-)

BTW: A person on the anarcho-capitalists community on orkut.com is looking for an ancap massive multiplayer online game to try out ancap theories. Do you have any recommendations? Feel free to email me...
BTW: we are getting the Bostropians restarted up here in NH, between myself and David Lubkin, and are encouraging transhumanists to look to NH as a >H homeland. If you are ever in the area, please let us know.
