This weekend I'll be at the Capclave SF convention in Rockville, MD, a con whose slogan is "Where reading is not extinct." Thus the dodo bird with beanie propeller hat mascot on the right. This is really only the second con I've attended since my twins were born a year ago, so hopefully I won't be too out of practice. Here's my schedule:

Infoquake (Excerpts) (Science Fiction & Fantasy)
3 chapters   —   updated Sep 01, 2007 08:51AM
description: The debut novel by web programmer David Louis Edelman takes science fiction into alien territory: the corporate boardroom of the far future. It's a stunning trip through the trenches of a technological war fought with product demos, press releases, and sales pitches. With "Infoquake," David Louis Edelman has created a fully detailed world that's both as imaginative as "Dune" and as real as today's Wall Street Journal.
