- BIGDUMMY is the Big Dummy's Guide to the Internet by the Electronic
- Frontier Foundation (dated July 15, 1993). Supported by Apple
- Computer, Adam Gaffin was hired to write this guide. The idea was to
- write a guide to the Internet for folks who had little or no experience
- with network communications--and then to give it away! And that they
- did! This book (399K uncompressed) will help you to use the Net to:
- = Stay in touch with friends, relatives and colleagues around the
- world, at a fraction of the cost of phone calls or even air mail.
- = Discuss everything from archaeology to zoology with people from
- around the world.
- = Tap into hundreds of information databases and libraries worldwide.
- = Retrieve any of thousands of documents, journals, books and computer
- programs.
- = Stay up to date with wire-service news and sports, and government
- weather reports.
- = Play live, "real time" games with dozens of other people at once.
- And much, much more! Excellent! I found this on the CodeHead BBS.
