  The Internet is the global network of computing resources and information forming the information superhighway. It can be used to chat to people all over the world, send and receive electronic mail, play computer games, get the latest news and gossip, shop, do business and pick up information. More than 20 million people are on the Internet worldwide. In the UK over 100,000 people use the Internet regularly and numbers are growing daily. To get onto the Internet it is necessary to sign up with an access provider, the computer company who supply the connection. The publishers of this book have negotiated with a UK supplier of access to the Internet, offering purchasers of the book one month's free use of the Internet. The guide is written specifically for the UK market. Some of the Teach Yourself pages have been put onto the Internet for the benefit of readers.
