"This guide is not intended to answer every single question you might have about Internet tools and culture ... The Net itself changes so fast that it is impossible to create a perfectly stable source of information and instruction ... [The authors] have provided information about how to find many help files and guides, but the best way to learn the technial, social, and educational ways of the Net is to dive right into it. From that perspective, this book is a starting point on your journey":--Pref.
