Neil Gaiman, Ursula Le Guin, Ben Bova and even William Shatner all made contributions, but I think the best one is:

My personal favorite:

Trust Neal Stephenson to come up with something so clever, geeky and loaded with meaning :-)
Here's one I just made up.
"Wanted! New posting in CyberWorld blog."
