Review
Web directories come in handy when you want to discover new Web resource s without actively searching for a particular keyword on a search engine or subject tree. Yahoo! The Ultimate Desk Reference to the Web applies editorial judgement to the billions of Web sites out there, yielding a nicely annotated list that spans dozens of subject areas. Health, government, sports, news--it's all here. One really nice feature: the book lies flat at almost any page, enabling you to station the volume at your side as you use both hands on your keyboard. On the other hand, you would expect a directory published under the Yahoo! brand to have a supporting Web site that would obviate the need to do manual URL entry. No such luck.
At certain points, it's evident that the contents of a Web site just don't translate well onto paper: "Sound Effects has, of course, numerous belches, as well as the requisite boings, bells, and bangs." Right. But anyway, this book is worthwhile reading for days of idle surfing. It'll make your everyday Web experience more enjoyable. --David Wall, amazon.com
Topics covered: A directory of Web sites, organised by subject area and then alphabetically. Categories include art, computers, entertainment, news, sports, science and shopping.
