Product Description

Book Description

Surveying the types of personal records that are available on the Internet and through online services, this encyclopedic book explains how researchers find and use personal data, identifies the most useful sources of information about people, and offers advice for those with privacy concerns. Researchers will learn how to use online tools and databases to gain competitive intelligence, locate and investigate people, access public records, identify experts, find new customers, recruit employees, search for assets, uncover criminal records, and conduct genealogical research. Added to this updated edition is a more comprehensive listing of all vendors of public records.

Browse The Book Online Before You Buy!

Carole A. Lane's NAKED IN CYBERSPACE is a tremendous resource for any person or business interested in using online resources to research people (or even to find out what types of information about THEM might be online).

We think you will be surprised by the number of topics and applications covered: the book includes more than 35 chapters and over 500 pages that explain how to use online technology for everything from private investigation to genealogical research, from asset searching to pre-employment screening, from finding experts to conducting competitive intelligence research, and much, much more.

In addition to all of this, an enormous, periodically-updated DIRECTORY OF INTERNET RESOURCES is available at the book's Website--hyperlinked to every site mentioned in the book and to useful new sites as the author learns of them.

If you are considering buying NAKED IN CYBERSPACE from Amazon.com (a great idea, considering their unbeatable prices AND service), but would like a taste of what the book has to offer first, go to www.onlineinc.com/pempress/naked and check out the complete TABLE OF CONTENTS and excerpts--including Helen Burwell's Foreword, Chapter 1 ("Welcome To Cyberspace"), and a considerable portion of Chapter 2 ("Database Searching").

And, please, if you do purchase the book, let us know what you think of it by sending email to johnb@onlineinc.com

Thank you!

2.0 out of 5 stars A good come-on but not much follow through, 20 Feb 1998
By A Customer
Some of the sites are informative -- for instance, if you are doing academic or "serious" research, the search engines, etc. provided are great. But as far as real "spy" stuff, there's not much new between the covers here.

3.0 out of 5 stars Be prepared to spend yer hard earned cash..., 29 Aug 1997
By A Customer
The title should be: "The Best Places to Spend Your Money on a Whim, and Lordy, I Hope You Got Time". Lane's book is well-written, researched, and simple to understand. It covers an enormous number of topics and is actually quite useful--IF, and yes, that's a capital IF, you wish to find things as a way of making money or starting a business. The book gives you many ideas and starting points, but it, and it's official review are somewhat misleading. There is plenty of info about where to find minor stuff (geneaology, search engines, et cetera) on the 'net, but most of the good stuff (credit reports, skip tracing, legal records, criminal records, et cetera) requires you to sign up and PAY for things like Nexis-Lexis, Knight-Ridder Databases, and Dun and Bradstreet, depending on what you would like to find. For a corporation that needs these information constantly, or someone trying to learn what is available, and where to look, "Naked" can be very informative. But for those of us who just want to find someone/thing once in a while, "Naked in Cyberspace" is not worth the money nor the time spent. Bought it--returned it. 'Nuff said.
