   from the deep-thinkin' dept.
   orac2 writes "The current issue of IEEE Spectrum Magazine is running a
   special report titled [1]Sensor Nation, about the technology and
   social issues involved with the rising tide of ubiquitous surveillance
   and analysis. One of the articles is a short story by Vernor Vinge
   about what kind of future we could end up living in, titled
   [2]Synthetic Serendipity. The story is actually adapted from the book
   Vinge is currently working on, called Rainbows End (and for the
   grammar nazis, that's right, there's no apostrophe at the end of
   'Rainbows.') ObPlug: I'll be talking at [3]The 5th HOPE in New York on
   Saturday at 4pm in Area B, and I'll bring along a few issues for any
   interested slashdotters."
