Cover Blurb: Discover the most intriguing products generated in the cyberworld for the information age. Get candid, plain-English revies from a variety of well-known and soon-to-be well-known cyberauthors. Access a grab bag of interesting tidbits that can make life in cyberspace a lot less stressful. System Requirements: An interest in anything related to computers. This book is sort of a Whole Earth Catalog of computer software. I actually worked on the Whole Earth Software Review a long while back...this book is more what I wanted for the WESR, but I couldn't do at the time, because Stewart Brand wanted a small, pocket size, TV Guide-like book, and I wanted to do a mongo big sucker like the actual Whole Earth Catalog. Now, ten years later, I got my chance... here's my first shot at it. CyberSource is just a 1.0 version, I had hoped to upgrade it regularly. But now that ZD has sold the book division to Viacom, the project got lost at sea. Copyright 1995, Ziff-Davis Press (now a division of Simon & Schuster, which is now a division of MacMillan, which is, in turn, now a division of Viacom.) They all had the urge to merge. Fred says: "If the big fish keep eating the little fish, all that will be left is whales and plankton." |
