This book was pretty good. It did a good job of making the internet, in all of its stupidness, beautiful as it fits into the life of a person. The ending suggested that the bigness of an event like your sister having a baby, overshadows the bigness of all of the things the hive mind tells you. That is a kinder moral than I expected from this story. Regardless, the fractional storytelling that I was introduced to by "Weather" didn't really hit the way it did in that book.
