More About the Author
Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
You can do just about anything on Yahoo!--the site that started out as a popular Web subject tree and has morphed into a centre for doing everything from finding a job to finding a date. How to Do Everything with Yahoo! documents the site's capabilities as they were in the third quarter of 2000. Essentially, author Alan Neibauer talks about Yahoo! as if it's a powerful application rather than a Web site. This is an appropriate approach (on Yahoo's part as well as Niebauer's). Even if you use the site all the time, this book will likely introduce you to cool things you can do with or on the popular portal that you never knew existed.
The book begins at the registration process that gets you a free Web-based e-mail account. Calendar management, maps, auctions, travel and the rest of the services your registration gives you access to, including the surfer-friendly subject tree that made Yahoo! famous in the first place, are covered next. You will find lots of references to other sites too. One potential flaw lies in the explicit procedures advising the reader to "choose this, click that"--they aren't well-suited to Web services like Yahoo! and they too often become obsolete without notice anyway. --David Wall

Yahoo - Everything You Need On the Web
4 Aug 2000
Format:Paperback
I purchased this book for a friend who was new to the internet, but I couldn't resist cracking it open. The book is layed out in a very clear, concise format, if you're interested in a function of Yahoo!, there is probably a chapter devoted to it. I was amazed at the versatility of the site...I used the free email, messenger and companion, but had no idea that there was so much more to do on Yahoo!. I love Chess, now I can play online. I love getting up-to-date sports scores, now I can get them through Yahoo!. I love to buy through my computer, now I can comparison shop from a single web site, all through Yahoo! Shopping. If you want to save time and find out everything you can do with your computer, then this book is an excellent way to learn.

Your tour guide through "Yahoo! country"
16 Nov 2000
Format:Paperback
If, like me, you make your "home" in "Yahoo! country" or you're new to the neighborhood, you've probably found yourself overwhelmed by the hundreds of things to do and points of interest that should be taken in. But, with so so little time and so much to do, where do you find the assistance that you need? Pick up a copy of "How to Do Everything with Yahoo!" and you'll be on your way.
Unquestionably, this book is the answer. It is jam-packed with 500 pages of information on every conceivable neighborhood and how to get the most out of each one. Whether you are a Yahoo! newbie or a longtime resident, you shouldn't be without this book.
