There is a column (technofile) in the (UK) Independent on Sunday's Sunday
Review magazine for 20/7 which is essentially a very favourable review of
Tim Ware's M&D page.

It also contains the interesting conceit :-

"The denizens of Pynchon's 18th c America bear a distinct resemblance to
Netizens, not just in their distaste for authority and their
overcaffeinated political arguments, but also in their eccentricity and
their vulnerability to bizarre obsessions.  There's a touch of the Internet
guru about the figure of Benjamin Franklin, along with echoes of Timothy
Leary, Malcolm McLaren and Doctor Who."

and winds up with a mention of this list
