Review:

One of the deep dark secrets of the World Wide Web is that sometimes it really is quicker and easier to find what you're looking for in a book--even if what you're looking for is a great Web site. Brad Hill's book is the right choice for those who want to quickly find terrific Web pages devoted to just about any popular topic imaginable--and a few really offbeat ones.

Whatever your topic of choice--news, entertainment, sports and leisure, services, interactive fun, Internet and computer help, and "off the beaten path"--Hill's listings make each category easy to find. Each section opens with an introductory chuckle from one of Rich Tennant's zany The Fifth Wave cartoons before being broken down alphabetically into easy-to-find subtopics. It only takes a moment to find a site devoted to your favorite author, math help, the contents of small-town newspapers, games, or pure recreational wackiness.

Each site listed is one of the best in its category--or at least one of the most influential. Hill's reviews of each site are straightforward, giving you the information to decide whether or not to visit. His many tips, insights, and explanations of background information feature the humorous twists that have been a hallmark of the Dummies series.
