Notes: This book is for the thousands of people who have "only E-mail" |
access to the Internet and think all they're going to get is mail. I get |
the impression this book is intended for people who have just been "given" |
an account and perhaps a cursory description of how to send and read |
messages. But we all can learn from it. It's amazing what you can do with |
Internet mail if you know how to do it. Clay Shirky shows you how in this |
very easy-to-absorb, non-overpowering title. |

Notes: The Companion includes a detailed history of the Internet, a |
discussion on "netiquette" (network etiquette), and how to find resources |
on the net. It is difficult to know what is supposed to be "companionable" |
about this volume. Physically, it would be easy to carry it along with you. |
You probably wouldn't want to, though. This is not a guide for |
explorations, either. It does give one some background on the Internet, but |
it is not in a step-by-step fashion. (How to access the Internet is the |
*last* topic to be covered.) The newcomer to the Internet will more likely |
want to read it all (possibly at one sitting; it's small enough) and look |
at the network gestalt. This work is somewhat less technical than the UNIX |
biased "Whole Internet Guide". However, it goes too far in the opposite |
direction. The authors boast that it was finished in less than two months. |
It shows. Companies which are getting into the Internet in a big way might |
make this the introductory volume for new users: it is generally upbeat and |
non-threatening. However, help should be on hand when people actually start |
using the net. |

Notes: A grassroots guide to learning about the Internet. It takes the |
clueless newbie and leads him from the fundamentals - like understanding |
what the Internet is, how to connect and how addressing works - and through |
the Internet's most important tools. This book doesn't cover any ground |
that hadn't been trod dozens of times before by other everything-you-need- |
to-know-about-the-Internet book ever written, but it delivers the |
information in a lively, always interesting manner. No topics are glossed |
over and the authors never get mired in the dirty technical details. This |
book is intended for folks who will be accessing the Internet using a UNIX |
command line prompt. If you are just trying to get started on the Internet, |
but don't know which of 50 step-by-step hold-your-hand books in your |
Subsets and Splits
