Notes: Notes from 1st ed: If you live in Canada, get this book. It contains
sections about getting Internet access in Canada, growth of 'net use there,
short basic sections about how to use of some of the most popular Internet
tools, a huge directory of Canadian Internet service providers, and even
more huge list of gopher servers and campus-wide information systems in
Canada and to top it off, lists of Canadian-based Usenet groups, WWW,
Archie, IRC servers and online catalogs. I wish I lived in Canada just so I
could make more use of this book.
