Summary

"... This is Bill Wasik's journey along the unexplored frontier of the twenty-first century's rambunctious new-media culture. He covers this world in part as a journalist, following 'buzz bands' as they rise and fall in the online music scene, visiting with viral marketers and political trendsetters and online provocateurs. But he also wades in as a participant, conducting his own hilarious experiments: an e-mail fad (that turned into the worldwide 'flash mob' sensation), a viral website in a monthlong competition, a fake blog that attempts to create 'antibuzz, ' and more."--Front flap of jacket
