Abstract

In the last article of Traveling in CyberSpace my co-author and I discussed the World Wide Web (WWW): the fastest growing and most ambitious Internet service, incorporating graphics, text, audio, and video media in a single "user-friendly" package. In upcoming issues I'll discuss various Internet services that are accessible from your favorite WWW browser. In this installment I discuss the various methods by which you, the reader, can connect to the Internet. (After all, if you're not connected you can't receive any of the benefits!). Caveat: The endless combinations of computers, modems, operating systems, software, and so on, prevents me from getting into any detail about the subject. Instead, I'll focus on the important general information you need to gain a better understanding of what you will need to get up-and-running on the Internet and the WWW. I will begin with a brief overview of some of the software and hardware you will need.
