Rudy Rucker Launches “Webzine of Astonishing Tales”

Street Tech hero Rudy Rucker has launched a web-based lit zine called Flurb. The first issue has pieces by Rudy and Paul DiFilippo, Richard Kadrey, and Marc Laidlaw, all fellow alums of print bOING bOING. The “Freestyle/Ribofunk” crowd — nice to see them all together again under one virtual roof.

[When I was a young stoner (been there/off that), “flurble durble” was a way that you could say: “I’m too many tokes over the line to rub actual thoughts together anymore. Feel free to talk amongst yourselves.” Somehow, having this association connect up to Rudy seems so apropos.]
