Along the way we meet girls who damage their lungs from screaming too loud, fans rallying together to manipulate chart numbers using complex digital subversion, and an underworld of inside jokes and shared memories surrounding band members' allergies, internet typos, and hairstyles. In the process, Tiffany makes a convincing, and often moving, argument that fangirls, in their ingenuity and collaboration, created the social internet we know today. \"Before most people were using the internet for anything,\" Tiffany writes, \"fans were using it for everything.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith humor, empathy, and an insider's eye, \u003ci\u003eEverything I Need I Get from You\u003c\/i\u003e reclaims internet history for young women, establishing fandom not as the territory of hysterical girls but as an incubator for digital innovation, art, and community. From alarming, fandom-splitting conspiracy theories about secret love and fake children, to the interplays between high and low culture and capitalism, Tiffany's book is a riotous chronicle of the movement that changed the internet forever.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKaitlyn Tiffany\u003c\/b\u003e is a staff writer at \u003ci\u003eThe Atlantic\u003c\/i\u003e, where she covers technology and culture.
