About this book
The book is Big Dummy's Guide To The Internet from the Electronic Frontier Foundation. The text explains that when using a protocol, you are transferring a file in a series of pieces. The text describes logging: you tell the software to open a file and give it a name, and until you turn off the logging command, everything that scrolls on your screen is copied into that file.
The text says the NED-NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database lists data on more than 100,000 galaxies, quasars and other objects outside the Milky Way, and gives the address Telnet: ipac.caltech.edu. The text says the physics department at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst runs a bulletin-board system that provides extensive conferences and document libraries related to space. The text says business deals are transacted entirely in ASCII and political and social movements begin online, coordinated by people who could be thousands of miles apart.
