Learn the Internet in a Weekend (In a Weekend)

Rating:
Summary: Excellent!
Review: I gave this to my wife who is completely new to the Net. She loved it! The book did what I couldn't do in 2 1/2 years of marriage. After a few days she was using the net and web like a pro. The in a weekend concept is strong. It tells you that you'll be able to learn it quick. This is true. I'm not sure a complete newcomer could learn all this in a weekend. My wife took her time, reading about 2 chapters a day. With the results I saw I think this should be a textbook used by every Internet 101 class.

Summary: Refreshing and a whole lot of fun!
Review: It was a toss up between Internet for Dummies and Learn the Internet in a Weekend. Learn the Internet In a Weekend won! It is a much better book and certainly more fun and enjoyable. I'll never read another dummies book again. Something I never thought I'd be able to say but this book has everything you need and the style is simply wonderful. I'm a convert in a BIG way.

Review: Stanek's style is unique! If you've never read his books and are just getting started this is a great place to start. Like a previous reviewer I actually bought this book for someone else and ended up reading it! So much has changed since I started using the Internet. I was amazed at how much. Reading the book was very rewarding. I ended up buying another copy to give to my niece who I had intended to give the book to in the first place. I really recommend this to anyone who uses the Internet and wants to catch up and those who are new and want to get onto the Internet. I think this would be a great textbook for Internet classes too! The book is certainly a lot of fun. Now thats not something you can say about most other computer books.
