FREEDOM IS BLOGGING IN YOUR UNDERWEAR

This book is a heartfelt mediation, in words and cartoons, on the infinite freedom that the Internet offers us all.

Several years ago Hugh MacLeod was watching a television interview with punk rockerHenry Rollins. In response to an inane question, Rollins quipped, "I thought rock & roll was about freedom," and suddenly something clicked. MacLeod said to himself, "Freedom. That's also what the Internet is really about, isn't it?" MacLeod's hugely popular blog, gapingvoid.com, is now ten years old. It enabled him to meet his girlfriend, his business partners, and all of his clients; in short, his blog gave him freedom.
