Outdated
This might have been a very helpful book at the time it was published, but it is outdated now and most of the web-sites no longer exist. It is just an exercise in futility, so please, don't waste your time or money.

Out-of-date & cumbersome
I bought this book shortly after publication and even then a decent amount of websites were already outdated. Seven years later I picked up the book again to find almsot everything I was interested in was out-of-date as well. Seven years ago the book had a place but with the power of today's internet search engines this book is not needed. It's cumbersome to use as well, it's not always easy to copy the super huge URLs from the book to the computer.

Waste of twenty dollars
After readiing the book. I went through to check out the links. I am at page 300 and I have had only had approx. 7 links work. All the rest of the links are invalid, I may be able to do a google search and look at the cache pages? Overall if you do a net search you should be able to find all this information and more.... So save your money and purchase another book for yourself or your kids
