Big disappointment. Why am I wasting my time listening to some lame sexist jokes

Interesting compilation of Carr's blog posts over the years. Quotable, to be sure.

Yes, this is mostly a collection of blog posts with a few signature essays thrown in (a few of them even culled from the author’s previous books), but give Nicholas Carr credit for being enough of a sharp thinker and witty writer that Utopia Is Creepy never feels tossed-off or insignificant as so much blog writing often does. If not as focused and studied as Carr’s earlier The Shallows, there’s enough learned and provocative thinking on all things tech that make it worth the time.

This book is good for anyone who wants to take a look at the technology we use in a critical lens.
adamantane's review
4.0
First off, this is a pretentious philosophical piece and as such should be approached with a grain of salt. That being said, it does raise some interesting points about interconnectivity and the implications of technological progression. Thought-provoking and occasionally humorous, but it occasionally slides into didacticism.
