Loved Cryptonomicon. Have you read his Baroque Cycle? It deals with some similar themes and ancestors of the same families around the turning of the 18th century.
I tried, but I couldn’t quite get into it. I’ll give it another go once I finish Seveneves.
I also love the tech noir vibes from Snow Crash, by the way.
