You know absolutely nothing about The Internet, even if you think you do. Whether an expert or a "newber," Post-Modem is guaranteed to tell you something you would have never known about The Internet without picking up this book. How did housewives in the 50s combine a turntable and a HAM radio to get Wi-Fi? What is the connection between "Mad Men"'s Jon Hamm and AskJeeves? (hint: you might want to ask Jon Hamm!)
