And Then There's This by Bill Wasik
An odd but happy marriage of sociological observation and Gonzo- style adventure.-Wired Journalist and new media provocateur Bill Wasik journeys to the edge of our churning and rambunctious viral culture to illuminate how anyone with a computer can initiate a small ripple of a story that can turn into a tsunami. While exploring this fascinating landscape, Wasik (who organized the very first flash mob in 2003) conducts six experiments himself. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in journalism, business, technology, and how cultural information spreads. Wasik's tour is great, stimulating and fun.
Bill Wasik is a senior editor at Wired Magazine and was previously a senior editor at Harper's Magazine. He is the author of And Then There's This: How Stories Live and Die in Viral Culture; a co-author, with Monica Murphy, of Rabid: A Cultural History of the World's Most Diabolical Virus; and the editor of Submersion Journalism: Reporting in the Radical First Person from Harper's Magazine (The New Press). He lives in Oakland, California.
