His name is Salam Pax and he was already writing the blog before the deal with the Guardian. The book deal enabled him to reach a wider audience and to keep blogging, allowing the Guardian to publish a perspective it couldn't have with conventional reporting.

Just a note about the idea that washing machines and other household appliances saved any time. I have some doubts about this - although they certainly changed things. Here's an <a href="http://www.ioltechnology.co.za/article_page.php?iArticleId=5021843&iSectionId=2890" rel="nofollow">article just on washing machines</a> - makes me wonder if you can and should really compare assumptions about the past with modern IT trends and what value any conclusions from that might have.
