NetWorld! What People Are Really Doing on the Internet and What It Means to You
Rothman, David H.
Internet
Errors deemed most likely to be the printer’s have been corrected, and
are noted here. The references are to the page and line in the original.
The following issues should be noted, along with the resolutions. FedEx
is referred to three times with the space (e.g. Fed Ex). These have been
removed where it occurs to facilitate text searches.
The quotation at 143.12 (see below) is misprinted, but it is not clear
how. We’ve chosen to retain the opening quote and provide the missing
close. A similar thing happens at 310.14. The sense would dictate that
the quotation continue from ‘really cool chapel’. The added closing
quote is harmless to the sense.
On p. 259, the technical term ‘uuencoding’ is almost certainly meant for
‘unencoding’, which makes no sense in the context. We suspect an
over-zealous but not very technical editor/proofreader.
