Hacker Tourism
There's a really great Wired article titled Mother Earth Mother Board in which:
The hacker tourist ventures forth across the wide and wondrous meatspace of three continents, chronicling the laying of the longest wire on Earth.
If you're into cyberspace and nerdy chronicles I recommend you check this article out. This is one of the most interesting travel pieces I've read.
hacker tourism: travel to exotic locations in search of sights and sensations that only would be of interest to a geek.
But it got me thinking, if Wired were to redo this article in 2025, would it still land? Where would one go for hacker tourism?
The internet is a more known and widespread concept now than it was in 1996, when they wrote the article, and so are undersea fiber cables. So I doubt one could replicate this experience in the same way. But surely there's other geeky 'net stuff happening out there.
I'm sitting here, wondering, when I should be programming, on what cool adventures a hacker tourist could set off to in 2025. What neat things one could find and document for the fellow nerds of the world.
