I support the recommendation of Neal Stephenson for high technology sci-fi:
Snow Crash,The Diamond Age, Cryptonomicon

I often find myself thinking about these books throughout my day because of where we're going with technology.

I'm sure someone put William Gibson, but if not I adored Neuromancer. It's what I call passionate sci-fi - not exactly romance sci-fi, but there's something of that in it.

I also enjoyed Richard K. Morgan's series, starting with Altered Carbon. Very quick reads, with engrossing stories.
