little_brother_cover_small1I’ve just finished reading Little Brother, by Cory Doctorow. Really one of my favorite books by one of my favorite authors.

It’s an eye-opening story about taking control of the technology, surveillance, personal freedoms in the post-911 world and, last but not least, teen angst. Made me wish I was 20 years younger. Or that my daughters were 10 years older – so I could make them read it.

I really liked it a lot, and apart from the fact that I can’t stop telling everyone I know about it, it inspired me to make a nice wallpaper image for all the techno-paranoid iPhone owners out there.

And of course, keeping in the spirit of Little Brother’s CC license, you’re free to remix it, play with it and pass it along.
