Those who maintain an interest in the future of telecommuting may want
to check out a lengthy but well-conceived article in the April '94 issue
of "Upside" magazine. Michael S. Malone wrote the article called "Is
Silicon Valley Over the Hill?"
Malone took a historical approach--examining what happened to the
19th-century New England mill towns during the last technological
revolution following the Civil War. From this, he postulated what may
happen in the U.S. in the not-too-distant future.
