Andrew Leonard has been working at Salon as a technology reporter, editor, blogger and staff writer for quite a bit longer than he ever anticipated being employed by an online magazine — 15 years. He’s enjoyed the luck of becoming obsessed with the Internet just before it broke into mainstream consciousness and the housing bust just before it precipitated a global economic collapse. Prior to becoming a Salon lifer he freelanced for a wide variety of publications, from Newsweek to Rolling Stone to Wired, and wrote a book, “Bots: The Origin of New Species”. He lives in Berkeley, Calif., with his two children and he likes to ride his bicycle up hill.

Early morning sunlight illuminates the top of the Teton mountain range in Jackson Hole, Wyoming August 21, 2009. The U.S. Federal Reserve is holding their annual Jackson Hole Economic Symposium with visiting bankers from around the globe meeting with Federal Reserve officials, academics and other financial experts. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke on Friday said prospects for a return to global economic growth looked good "in the near term," the clearest signal yet the world's most powerful central banker thinks a recovery is at hand.
