I bought this book becasue I've dabbled in the cyber-dating thing and i thought it would be fun to see what an "expert" had to say. I was glad that he didn't spend too much time on the technical side of it and focused more on fun stuff like some of his stories and his ideas about male and female relations and how they can play out over the computer (which i have to admit were pretty funny and might shock some younger or inexperienced readers). Overall, it's a great book if you want something light and easy to kill a few hours and have a few laughs. There wasn't much i didn't already know about how to meet a woman online, but he did make a few interesting points that I hadn't thought of. It could be helpful for someone who doesn't know the first thing about it too. Good book to pass around to your friends too - my girlfriends think it's hilarious.

Definitely a book for guys, and his mother would want to wash his mouth out with soap. But the book was limited to only AOL chat rooms, the internet's version of cruising a bar.

I originally bought this book as a gag gift for a buddy of mine but it turned out to be a lot more than I expected. Dan is hilarious - sure he gets a little raunchy here and there but anyone with any sense can tell that it's all in good fun. I think some of the other people who wrote bad reviews on this book either didn't really read it or are from the religious right or something. Anyway - I loved it. My only complaint is that he hasn't written anything else - at least not that I know of... and I guess I wouldn't have minded if the book was longer - I was done before I knew it.

This book was designed to help people who might like some advice in the realm of online dating. It has a great deal of insight and personal history on the do's and don't of online romance. It may not become an anthology for each walk of life, yet it will provide some good laughs and better yet, it may create a gateway to meeting that special someone. This book is sarcastic yet poignant. Overall, a good read for the casual cyber junkie

None of this is TOTAL BS! My pal Kristoff told me about this book, and ever since I've been using AOL to get the ladies online! I'm chatting with 5 girls right now, thank goodness for the "tile windows" option, eh?!?

Dan Theman is really The Man! If I met him, I'd say "Dan, you are The Man, Man!"

Yeah Boyee, this is one awesome guide, and not just for dudes trying to score chicks. It's also great for you ladies out there, to buy and to study. Emphasis on the STUD if you know what I mean.

In conclusion, this is one rockabilly book, and I'm not joking when I say it was totally worth the $1.00 I paid for it. Heck, the first half alone is worth $.50, so go figure! You do the math! I'm too busy meeting foxy internet ladies and moving beyond cybersex!

I gotta say being the girlfriend of a perverted 'man', 'animal', 'dog', whatever you want to call him, is not easy. Maybe I should write a book on how to keep your perverted man under your wings. This book has great jokes and awesome to read on long plane rides, laugh real loud and annoy your neighbours. Vulgar, very much so. I'm surprised your mom didn't wash your mouth with clorox detergent yet, babe.

After having the misfortune of buying this book(?) and reading the first paragraph I had to toss my cookies. The author comes across as a totally arrogant jerk. It's too bad that one of more of the women that had the 'misfortune' of meeting him haven't written their own rendition. If they would, I'd be at the head of the line to purchase it.

There is only one thing "wrong" with this book: it points men and women in the wrong direction, outward instead of inward. Psychosexually speaking, in this day and age of widespread rape, domestic violence, and sexually transmitted diseases, it behooves each potential Lover, whether male or female, to "come within" and cease "looking for It" out there, which is to say, treat every "male" online as a Voice, not a physical person, and inner Voice for astute women, the Voice of her own Animus (see Jung's books); the reverse is true for men, the inner Voice belonging to the Anima. Within EACH individual, the inner marriage of both Anima and Animus results in personal peace, happiness, and even Joy. Thank you for the 5-star metaphor!
