The Agony Column on Bookotron.com has a short story by Neil Asher, titled Watchcrab, available to read online. The story deals with some happenings at Cybercorp (the Golem manufacturer we know from the Polity Universe) at their warehouse in Essex. It's fluff, it's fun, it's non-essential. Go read it.
No idea when this was posted (it's not dated), the story itself is from 2003; but I wanted to drop a link to it: click here to read the story.
