Book Description
User Friendly tells the story of Columbia
Internet, "the friendliest, hardest-working, and most
neurotic little Internet Service Provider in the world."
Take three techs, two salespeople, a designer, two
executives, a couple of administrative staff, mix in a
mischievous Artificial Intelligence and a "dust
puppy" born from the innards of a mega server, put them
all together in a crowded little office, and you have the
makings of one of the most off-beat, original, and funny
comic strips to come along in years.
User Friendly reads like Dilbert for the
open-source community. Already in syndication in The
National Post, one of Canada's leading national
newspapers, and with a massive online following, it provides
outsiders a lighthearted look at the world of the hard-core
geek, and allows those who make their living dwelling in this
world a chance to laugh at themselves.
