SIX CHARACTERS
IN SEARCH OF WEBSITES
Follow them! Each one will take you to the
websites that best suit their character and their role in the novel. As
for the author, they found me.

She looks like a very beautiful woman and
claims to be an Electronic Agent, of the same kind as those Pattie
Maes projected among the many wonders of MIT
Media Lab.But this Lady is very ironical, so probably she's not
at all what she pretends to be. To have more clues about what she
really is, surf on the sea of cyberfemimisn with Donna
Haraway. Otherwise, look into the magic Ecosphere. |

Nineteen years of age, curly hair, emigrated
to Italy from Tunisia,
he is an illegal immigrant who is so clandestine that he is not even
sure of who his parents are. He knows just one thing for sure: sooner
or later he'll become a chef, famous for his Recipes
from the Mediterranean. |

Ugo's younger sister hates him. She, an
electronics genius with a well established software business, would
like to have a stainless body like the
sexy robots by Hajime Sorayama, but after all she's sentimental
like the icons and the Japanese manga style gadgets that you can download
from the cute site of Giniko-chan. |

Sandrina's programmer, employee and boyfriend,
Marco has a problem: he often gets caught in role games (take a look
to Lumen
et umbra , a very Italian role game): he goes on for ages playing
the knight or the prince all by himself... To put him back in order
he needs an invitation for something strong. Try the RoboCup, the
World Soccer Championship
for robots. |

She's got a long, thick pigtail and lots
of piercing. Listen to her and she'll check out a load of webgirls,
the Italian Women on the
Net. But if she gets angry, she can dump you in the website of
Guerrilla Girls,
and then you boys are really in deep shit. Watch out! |
