Review
The Internet still remains a baffling mystery for millions of people but with the latest edition of her Guide to the Internet Carole Vorderman aims to encourage as many novices as she can to boldly go online and enter a whole new world of e-mail, Web sites and chat rooms.
Written in a clear and chatty style, the Guide tells you all you need to know about getting connected to the net and informs you in a jargon-busting way how to surf around and find anything from the Virgin Radio Breakfast Show to a Bugs Bunny cartoon. As well as showing you how to check the weather, book a holiday and get the latest news delivered to your desktop, this easy-to-read guide runs through a description of all the different types of software you can download from the Web so you can listen to MP3 files or watch action-packed video clips. For wannabe e-tycoons there is even a section at the back on how to create your own web site in HTML.
The book admits the Internet also has its fair share of sex and smut. But rather than depriving children of this incredible resource, Vorderman puts forward some good practical advice so parents can let their youngsters surf freely and safely.
Overall, this friendly and informative guide proves that you don't need a degree in astrophysics to get online and will be enjoyed by anyone who is still a mouse click or two away from entering the fast-expanding world of the Web. --Justin Hunt
