Summary: DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME
Review: I have several dummies books, from how to build a PC to CCNA. I had to read this rediculous book when I worked for a very well known DSL provider on the East Coast. This book was trivial, assumes that you are completely mindless and plugs certain products and services shamelessly. Yes, I agree, Hot Bot is a pretty good search engine...but it is not the only one out there. This book has technical incosistansies throughout and is basically a really really long advertisement. Easily the worst dummies book in print, and Im not being a jerk, I love dummies books, Ron Gilster rocks, but this is absolute crap. You can honestly get more informed with a magazine.

Summary: A Very Good Start-up
Review: I hope, almost everyone has heard of the "For Dummies" books. The series' direct method and clear (sometimes playful and fun) language make learning easy. It is also a well-known computer book series in Russia. "The Internet For Dummies" is the chance to find out in a simple, clear and fun guide which takes the horror out of meeting the Internet for the first time.

As a computer writer, I am always delighted to discover new great book that makes understanding the computer. Many so-called Internet books are nothing more than printed collections of Web addresses.

You'll also find here a lot of tips for optimizing your browser for speed, building your first Web page, managing e-mail, subscribing to mailing lists, and go shopping on-line. "The Internet for Dummies" is a great start to learning the Internet.

Summary: More useful for a newbie
Review: I love the "Dummy" books, although I think they are a bit overpriced. Maybe I was a dummy, but I purchased this book after being on the internet for over a year. I guess I was hoping to learn things I had no prior knowledge about. For me, this book basically contained info I already knew. Don't be a dummy like me. Purchase this book while you are a newbie, otherwise you will be wishing you had better spent your money.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book was very helpful and informative to me
Review: I really enjoyed the way the authors of this book organized the book. They did it in a very constructive, humorous, and effective manner. I found learning more about the Internet very easy. I wish I could meet the authors. They seem very interesting.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Loved the cover and relatively jargon free excellent speak!
Review: I'm just this year getting to grips and got connected to the internet. I'm great on the phone and face to face. Your book will help me to further master the internet and help to spread my artistic propaganda for the Wellington Fringe Festival. As a net virgin I will have a spunky home page soon.Yours Sincerely Alison Jones
