ParticipantI read a decent spec-fict book last week called Theta Head., all about technology and consciousness and how the two come up against one another. Got it for under a buck for the kindle, bargain I would say cause alough it was probably worth a buck – there were plot issues – most of it was really well written stuff, very modern, reminded me of pattern recognition by William Gibson.

Good luck and keep us updated.
Though, your site is a little on the “not working” side, so you'll need to fix it, or removing the link from your signature…
I'm into spec-fic. I think it's usually set in the present – ie like writing about the real world but with plug-ins. William Gibson's last three novels might qualify – they are all set in the present, allbeit a very modern present. I would esp recommend Pattern Recognition, for me an increadily important and inspiring book.
Here are a few spec-fic places of interest:
