EDITOR ONLINE

Promote liberty and future technology by communicating your thoughts, ideas, comments, and articles to Prometheus via e-mail. E-mail is fast, convenient, and an alternative to the monopoly postal system (in the political as well as practical sense). For best readability, send your files in ASCII format either as attachments, or paste your letters directly to the editor e-mail address: anders_monsen@capmac.org. Files must be kept under 50k.

This is an Internet “address” node only part of the growing network of global computers that soon will allow direct access to anywhere in the world from the comfort of your home, the convenience of wireless service, and other unimaginable wonders. Address nodes are not like organized online systems, such as Compuserve, GEnie, or America Online, but rather localized opportunities for individuals to stretch the limits of current means of communication. They are the gateways to cyberspace.

About this issue

I wish to thank Victoria Varga for believing I could do this job, and giving me the go ahead. Future issues will have more reviews, interviews, and awards related stuff. Thanks also go to the past editors of Prometheus who made me dream of doing this one day. I hope I can do as well.

This issue covers the first half of 1994, therefore the 1 & 2. Next issue is planned for mid July, with the fall issue around October.

I also wish to thank my friend Steve Miller for creating the key art for the Clipper article in this issue, managing to make real what I could only imagine. Story-specific art can be especially hard to find.
