good intro book

Since I use Netscape I thought I needed to learn a little bit about it. The book accomplished that. Since the book is dated I cannot give it five stars.It explained to me about the features of Netscape Communicator, but not to technical. Which is what I wanted. A nice, easy read book.I have not looked at the yellow pages, afterall what are search engines for.I also was able to create my webpage in 15 minutes from what the book explained to do. All you have to do is hit the publish button.

Excellent coverage of all components of Communicator,

I am an instructor of a course entitled Introduction to the Internet for Instructional Support. I used this book as the course text. It is an outstanding book with excellent coverage of all the of components of Netscape Communicator; Navigator, Messenger, Collabra, Conference, Composer and Netcaster. It is wonderfully easy to use with step-by-step instructions with accompanying graphics. There are some examples and exercises to use but that is not the purpose of the book. The purpose of the book is to completely and easily explain the components of Netscape in an easy to read and use fashion. It has a good index and a companion guide to Web Hot Sites. My students are primarily secretaries of academic departments and they use the book to teach faculty and other staff how to use Communicator. This book may actually change the way our academic community communicates with each other. But there needs to be an update of this book to reflect the changes from Netscape Communicator 4.07 to v. 4.5.
