Abstract | This newsletter presents an introduction to the Internet. A definition of the Internet and its three principle uses--electronic mail, USENET newsgroups, and information files--are provided. A discussion on how to explore the Internet includes equipment needs, university Internet accounts, commercial vendors, navigating the Internet through the gopher, the World Wide Web, and software that gives the user a graphical interface. Examples of types of information available on the Internet and a description of six governmental resources are presented. Potential problems, including roadblocks, complications in searching, useless information, and information unsuitable to children are also discussed. (AEF) |
