If attention is the new oil, Ben Smith''s Traffic is the story of the time between the first gusher and the perceptible impact of climate change. The curtain opens in Soho in the early 2000s, after the first dot-com crash but before Google, Apple, and Facebook exploded, when it seemed that New York City, rather than Silicon Valley, might become tech''s center of gravity. There, within a few square blocks, Nick Denton''s merry band of nihilists at his growing Gawker empire and Jonah Peretti''s sunnier team at HuffPost and BuzzFeed were building the foundations of viral internet media. It was tech''s age of innocence: The old establishment might have been discredited by the Iraq War, but digital news would empower the spread of truth. After all, didn''t the progressive internet get Barack Obama elected? Ben Smith, who would go on to earn a controversial reputation as BuzzFeed''s editor in chief, was there to see it, and he chronicles it all with marvelous lucidity underscored by dark wit, sparing no one - and certainly not himself.

''Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.''So says Rat to Mole, as he introduces him to the delights of the river and his friends Toad, the spirit of rebellion, and Badger, the spirit of England. But it is a world where the motor-car is about to wreck the gipsy caravan, the revolutionaries in the Wild Wood are threatening the social fabric, the god Pan is abroad, and the warm seductive whispers of the south are drifting into the English lanes.An international children''s classic, The Wind in the Willows grew from the author''s letters to his young son, yet it is concerned almost exclusively with adult themes: fear of radical changes in political, social, and economic power. Mole''s acceptance into the conservative world of the River Bank, and Toad''s wild attempts to escape from it, are narrated in virtuoso language ranging from lively parody to elaborate fin-de-siècle mysticism.
