A must read for anyone with an internet connection. ( ) It is really hard to give this book a rating, it is somewhere between a 3 and a 4 but I decided to give it a 3. I enjoyed a lot of it and the well earned cynicism about social media and the internet in general, but it is very uneven and is so unremittingly cynical that by the end I was not enjoying it nearly as much. I did laugh out loud quite a few times and found myself highlighting quite a few passages, and I would recommend it as a generally fun read, but with the caveat that I'm not sure Mr. Kobek really has anything coherent to say. It is basically 300 pages of invective about silly people doing silly things. I guess I would say that ends up being silly itself. This is one hell of an angry book. Kobek's diatribes against contemporary culture and particularly Silicon Valley are not especially groundbreaking or original but rarely are they communicated so coherently or wittily. Very little avoids his criticism and it ends just about at the point where you've heard enough ranting, an entertaining albeit depressingly accurate read. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
