I only found 1 error on the IAC in Katie's book, and I had a chance to meet Matt before he died. I think Katie is now on husband #3. The amusing thing is that I now also know people she went to HS with.

I like Mitch's book, but I prefer Katie's writing style (which is evident in her early book as well).

While he has more errors, and is based on Katie's book, Stephen Segaller's book is not bad (not that Taylor would agree).

Now the idea is this: To give you a screen in your home from which you can see into the world's hypertext libraries. (The fact that the world doesn't yet have any hypertext libraries --yet--is a minor point.) To give you a screen system that will offer high-performance graphics and text services at a price anyone can afford. To allow you to send and receive written messages at the Engelbart level. To allow you to explore diagrams. To eliminate the absurd distinction between "teacher" and "pupil." To make you a part of a new electronic literature and art, where you can get all your questions answered and nobody will put you down. Ted Nelson Nerds 2.0.1 the book, Stephen Segaller

But to see Ted say this was more interesting.

I copied 1 quote from Katie's book into my quote database. I copied many more from Segaller's book and programs.
