An ideal book for learning about the internet
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
I, being 11 years old, thought this book was excellent and very helpful. It answered questions about the internet. It also explained thoroughly how to create a web page using the Web Site GEOCITIES.COM. It also provided references to web activities which were a lot of fun. The one downside to it is that I got it in 1997 and the book was written in 1996. Some of the instructions were not totally clear since some of the Web Sites were changed slightly.
