Cory Doctorow book search
I am a bit embarrassed over this question but it is making me nuts.
Before I received my Cybook I was setting up Mobipocket on my laptop and generally getting ready, as you do. I came across a book, I am sure was by Cory Doctorow, that I read a few pages of on my pc. I wanted to read it on the Cybook but now I can't find it. It started with a man on top of a building with a pencil up his nose wondering if he should give himself a lobotomy. I think it had a CC license. Anyone know its title and where I can get it? |

It's called Eastern Standard Tribe and it can be found on this site.

For the record, you can pick up most of Doctorow's work from his own site at http://craphound.com/ in various formats, and a lot of MR forum members have created sony-specific (and other) versions:

Eastern Standard Tribe definitely needs an update. I'll deal with it later on today.

You'll find most of Doctorow's work in Mobipocket and ePub on Feedbooks: http://www.feedbooks.com/author/93

I've redone Eastern Standard Tribe to be better formatted. So have at it and enjoy!
