“Mark Stefik works at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center. He is a “technologist” who creates “new kinds of things” (xvii). He recognizes that “[c]reative times brings many changes” (p. xi). He also recognizes that change in what he calls “Internet time” (ibid.) occurs more rapidly than during earlier times of change. His book, The Internet Edge: Social, Legal, and Technological Challenges for a Networked World, is “about some of the changes taking place in Internet time” (ibid.).”
