Predicting Silicon Valley's Future

On a Wednesday evening, in haste -- for the end of shift was near -- I doodled this thumbnail after a brief brainstorming session with the art director and page designer. I submitted it to the editors for approval and went home.

I stole the hand from the illustration in my previous

Here is what it looked like in the paper after Daymond Gascon put the page together. He made it look nice, didn't he?

And here is the link to Mike Cassidy's excellent story.

The End.
