[ez_box title=”Using the Internet” color=”red”]

You might think that a book called “Using the Internet” is really no longer needed this day and age. But the fact is, even experienced Internet users who are self-taught have often missed learning about core tips and tricks to help them get even more out of the Internet.

And that’s why I came up with this book.

In it, we help inexperienced users get started with understanding what the Internet is and what they can do, and then move into the best methods of using a browser and doing keyword searching.

But as I said, even experienced users will find this book adds to their Internet knowledge and provide insights on how to browse and search better.

[ez_box title=”YouTube and Internet Video” color=”red”]

The ability to watch video on the Internet has actually been around for a long time. But it’s only been in the past few years that folks like you and I have finally gotten fast enough connections to make watching video worthwhile.

But even so, I’m always amazed at how many of my students don’t take advantage of all the wonderful video content that’s there, free for the viewing, especially from YouTube.

It’s amazing what you can find on YouTube. Sure, there’s lots of fun and entertainment to be found there, but what I really love is all the great “how to” videos, on everything from fixing your sink to setting up your printer.

And that’s why I wrote this book. In “YouTube & Internet Video” I teach you all about how video on the Internet works, and then give you the specifics of getting the most out of YouTube.

But it doesn’t stop there. I also provide a wealth of information on watching Internet video on your Internet-ready Television, including movies and your favorite TV shows.
