Following ‘s link to Why We Need a New (And Better) Google, I heard about the start-up search engine blekko, which has certain "slashtag" filters built in.

I decided to put it to the test by searching my name, of course. When I search on Google, I can find "Bonepickers" on the first page but that’s it. Anything that’s actually me is scattered one by one across the following pages. In contrast, 10 of the 20 entries on the first page of my blekko search were actually me, even without the slashtags.

And (bonus!) I found a review of "Acid" on HorrorScope, where Mark Smith-Briggs reviews ASIM Issues 46-48. He can only devote a few sentences to "Acid", of course, but he summarizes it as well–probably better–than I could:

That’s a mouthful, isn’t it?

[That pun was subconscious. I swear.]

And here’s one by David Steffen, who admittedly isn’t new to this story, since he read it in draft over at Baen’s Bar. "It takes a little while to understand the point of view at the beginning," he acknowledges, "but it is just a difficult point of view to convey." Did I mention that it started out in second person?
