I have to take minor objection to Paul Boutin’s assertion that people didn’t like Wired’s “breathless cyber optimism.” I, for one, chose a career in technology thanks in part to positivist platitudes. Between Wired and Fast Company, I read enough of the tech-happy prose to join the tech-happy pros and back-burner thoughts of post-graduate study. Wired had a hand in getting me here, Webmonkey helped me through, and I just don’t see myself leaving anytime soon.
