Jaron Lanier's book "You Are Not A Gadget: A Manifesto" is all the buzz on the web this week.

CyberFrequencies been guilty of promoting this point of view but Lanier spins out a dystopic future and draws the curtains open on the proverbial wizard.
Web 2.0 rests on the ideology that the universe is made of computations and we, the people, need to keep feeding information to Google, Facebook and LinkedIn. If we digitize our lives, we'll attain eternal life.
