Notes: The New Hacker's Dictionary is a great book for learning about the |
various slang, jargon and customs and folklore of the 'net (as well as |
other lairs of the hacker.) Very silly and highly recommended. You can get |
it for free online (The Jargon File) at //www.ccil.org/jargon/jargon.html, |
but the bound book makes great bathroom reading and contains silly cartoons |
and stuff. |

This huge book covers vast ground in its 900-plus pages. Although the |
quantity is there, the quality isn't exceptional: it is rather unevenly |
edited. Some of the listings seem to be listed by name rather than subject |
and many items are listed in multiple places, artifically inflating the |
size of the book. This index is unique in that it contains listings of some |
commercial services available via the Internet, such as DIALOG. Icons |
differentiate the free resources from the costly ones. |
