08/26/2004: "Why Bruce Sterling Hangs out with Designers..."
listening to: None
feeling: My brain hurts...
Okay, so apparently Bruce Sterling (whose writing I generally enjoy, although I am wading about waist-deep in
The Difference Engine right now) has a 'Blog on Wired.com. I, being the behind the bleeding edge, but more with-it than the general poulation guy that I am, just found this out.
He links, in the Blog, to this short story...or maybe essay, I'm not really sure:

It's about designers, and I am a designer, and I think it's funny that Bruce likes them. Us. Well, he's talking about product design, so I guess really
them.
I haven't checked them out, but it says you can also find more writing of his at:

If you're curious about him, I'll put some links to his books in after the Jump.
