And Now For Something Really Different

I a bit of a sci-fi fan, so I was pleased to come across Futurismic. It's a labor of love by several sci-fi fans hoping to promote near-future sci-fi. The stories can be somewhat bleak, often dystopian in nature, but considering that they're all mostly focused on the not-too-distant future, they make some very interesting statements on where the world is headed.

They also run a blog devoted to technology and futuristic news. Not a bad site, all in all. They even pay modestly for selected stories.

Check it out. Especially before your kids do, as there is some mature material.

Daaaaang, that is some smokin' skiffy, hepcat. Just read "Changing the Tune", and that is one seriously creepy vibe. Unfortuntely, I can see the roots of it happening already. :(
