JPod

Douglas Coupland is at it again! Long story short, JPod is Microserfs 2.0. If you liked Microserfs, you will probably like JPod. So far, the characters are similar to MS-- wordy, smart, critical, headstrong, and funny. THe character banter, and much of the narration, is sort of like Clerks, where the delivery of the material is less important as the words and ideas themselves. It doesn't read or feel natural, but it is funny.

Anyway, this time around it is about 6 game programmers that work together, and the crazy, parent-laden shenannigans that happen to the main character.

Funny, relevant, pop-culture drivel.

Kinda like a Forgotten Realms novel. Drivel, but fun, enjoyable drivel none the less. I think Enron would enjoy this over any other Action Team member.
