Do you feel that you have been left behind in the technological revolution? Are you looking for sound, practical advice on getting the most out of email and the Internet? If so, 'Teach Yourself The Internet and email for the Over 50s' is exactly what you need! Focussing on a wide range of Internet and email uses that are of particular relevance and interest to older computer users and the technologically terrified, including travel, shopping and much more, this book even covers online dating! The author approaches the subject in a highly accessible way, covering emailing, making calls over the Internet, shopping online, banking, setting up a blog and searching online. Starting from first basics, it begins with how to choose the right computer, software and peripherals. Made up of of self-contained chapters with the emphasis on what the computer is being used for, rather than scary technical stuff about the software needed, this book covers key areas of interest including: getting started with email, sending and receiving emails and attachments; making phone calls over the Internet (VOIP etc), 'chatting' over the Internet, reading and writing 'blogs'; keeping your personal information safe online and keeping your computer safe from viruses; finding what you need on the Internet, shopping, banking and online auctions. Filled with clear instructions and supported with screenshots, tips, hints and a full 'jargon-busting' glossary, it assumes no prior knowledge of using the Internet and email, guiding you with practical good humour to success.

This British author follows up on his first book, Teach Yourself Computing for the Over 50ties, with this more comprehensive coverage of two areas that he had only surveyed in the first volume: The Internet and Email. Here, he instructs all levels from beginner on up, for example, on how to sell items on Ebay. There is some duplication early on of some chapters from the first book because he probably felt that he had to do this or lose his readers who hadn't read the initial volume. But don't miss it because he builds the reader's computer skills as the book progresses.
