"NetLingo The Internet Dictionary" is a modern reference book of technology terms, online business terms, and Internet jargon used by millions of people at work, at school and in cyberspace. It is written by a woman "using layman's language so easy-to-understand, it's as if you're describing it to your mother." The first book review proclaimed "it is a linguistic treasure you'll want to read from cover to cover."

A Handy, Accessible Guide for Every Computer User
6 Jun 2002
By Avid Surfer But Still Learning
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
The Netlingo dictionary gives me an enormous assortment of Internet, computing, telecom, and networking terms for reference. The definitions are written in a laid-back, conversational tone. It's as readable and friendly as you can get in this technical area, but it doesn't get condescending or cutesy. I wind up reading the surrounding terms after I've looked something up. I've recommended it to my parents because any computer user will benefit from having the dictionary as he or she moves up the learning curve. Plus, the chat acronyms, smilies, and assicons are hilarious ;-)

The first NetLingo Review
10 May 2002
By Brenton C. Lively
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
NetLingo has become a wonderful resource for me in understanding what my 'web guys' are talking about. I am somewhat computer saavy, but sometimes get my cookies confused with my bytes. It is nice to finally have a reference beside my 14 year old nephew. I'm getting a copy today for my home office.

Must-have in Internet Industry!
17 Jun 2002
By "aleksandra"
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This dictionary is fun and gorgeous! Great format: very light and ergonomic having over 500 pages of invaluable information! Clever design. Everyone in computer industry should have it on the desk, read it during lunch break, have it as a contemporary coffee-table book. You will learn something new even if you think you know all about it. It may open your eyes on terms you have used incorrectly. I am webdesigner with years of experience and I have always thought that "hacker" is a negative hero in the Internet jargon, but I was wrong according to Netlingo Dictionary... I believe that it's newest Net dictionary out there.
