Information Research Weblog

We're aware of the value of the Web in terms of making books available, see a recent message here, for example. However, now it is the turn of modern writers, rather than those out of copyright. Ben Hammersley, writing in the Guardian's Online supplement (now, for some inexplicable reason, read backwards from the rear of the Life supplement!), reports on good modern writing on the Web. He cites William Gibson's Weblog (which I understood to have been terminated) along with Neil Gaiman and " no less than America's greatest living writer, Neal Pollack", whom I must confess to never having heard of.

Still, the Weblinks are interesting: take a look, for example, at The Simon, Sweet Fancy Moses, and Retort Magazine.

Oh, yes - and Neil Gaiman's (yes, I have heard of him :-) ) Weblog is at http://www.neilgaiman.com/journal/journal.asp
