I wrote for NewsFactor Network from 2000 to 2004. One of my articles, Palestinian Hacktivism and Viruses Collide (March 20, 2001), was used in Social Signal CEO Alexandra Samuel’s dissertation, Hacktivism and the Future of Political Participation, which earned her a Ph.D in Political Science at Harvard University.
I was flattered. Sometimes Googling yourself can be a happy experience!
