Cory Doctorow's "0wnz0red" Available as Podcast

by Ken Newquist / September 28, 2006

Cory Doctorow's short story "0wnz0red" is available as a four-part podcast. He describes it as "a story about trusted computing, geek culture, and getting root on your body", which sounds nicely weird. I haven't listened yet, but I've got it queued up and ready to go for today's workout at the gym.

If listening to fiction isn't your thing (yes, I'm looking at you Berin) then you can always try subscribing to the episodic, RSS-based version of Doctorow's exceedingly strange urban fantasy novel Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town. The feed delivers a few pages to you each day until you've completed the book. Read my review of the dead tree version of the book.
