Canada's newest, hippest guide to the wired world is now a bestseller!

The profile of the average wired consumer is changing as rapidly as the Internet itself and most people are far beyond the need for pedantic instructions on getting connected. They want insider information on how to fine-tune their browsers to get the biggest bang for their surfing dollar. They want nifty tips on where to find the most interesting and useful eStuff. And they want a huge collection of fabulously fun Web sites to explore—sites that have been chosen with intelligence and wit.

Irreverent and engaging, Scott and Darren will get readers past the hype and show them exactly what's out there and what isn't; what works and what doesn't. Fully revised and updated for 2001, with over 3,000 of the best Web sites.

Also covered:

  • how to avoid annoying system conflicts and crashes
  • finding great plug-ins and add-ons
  • security and privacy issues
  • e-commerce and online investing
  • music, books, games, news, and more
