Book Review: Alive! By Eileen P. DeClementeThis is a powerful book, and also a very sad one.
I run a Computer Lab, we offer free classes, and we offer free internet access.

An Interview With Dan Ronco About Unholy DomainI really enjoyed Dan Ronco's latest book, Unholy Domain, it is set in the near future, and paints a bleak picture of what might happen in the aftermath of a computer virus that spreads through the Internet.
