I've been wondering if we should include Philip K. Dick's VALIS in this category. Although not cyberculture per se (some might argue that it was a precursor to the genre of cyber-punk) and not about the Internet per se (some might argue that it is about informatics and shared subjectivities) it is one of the first novels on information and culture. Other Dick novels might also be relevant: UBIK, THE THREE STIGMATA OF PALMER ELDRITCH, and the novella DO ANDROIDS DREAM OF ELECTRIC SHEEP. The inclusion of the last makes the interesting point that if there is a cyberculture author that has contributed most to the filmic versioins of cyberculture it is most likely Dick (Blade Runner, Total Recall, Minority Report, etc.). best- Phillip Phillip Thurtle http://www.carleton.ca/~pthurtle/
