5.0 out of 5 stars A Concise Guide To The Best Sites on the Net!
     There are literally millions of Websites online today that provide a wealth of information on a variety of topics. There are a handful of good Internet Website directories available that can help surfers find the information they need. Most of these are bulky, though, and can take a while to thumb through.

2.0 out of 5 stars Irrespective of contents, physical properties cheaply done
I was very unhappy when I saw the cheap quality of The Big Basics Web Directory published by Que.. The paper is the kind used for coloring books, and the printing is poorly done. In some instances it is all but impossible to read the black print on dark gray background. I had expected to receive a book of at least as good quality as Que's Complete Idiot's...

1.0 out of 5 stars Out of date, January 14, 2000
This review is from: The Big Basics Web Directory (Paperback)
Good guide for 1997, but 3 years later it is out of date and does not contain many new sites. Web directorys should be updated yearly at the least.

This review is from: The Big Basics Web Directory (Paperback)
I was very unhappy when I saw the cheap quality of The Big Basics Web Directory published by Que.. The paper is the kind used for coloring books, and the printing is poorly done. In some instances it is all but impossible to read the black print on dark gray background. I had expected to receive a book of at least as good quality as Que's Complete Idiot's Guide to Windows 95. Sorry about this poor review. This is the first time in a long time I've been so disappointed in a book I had ordered sight unseen.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Concise Guide To The Best Sites on the Net!, August 31, 1998

This review is from: The Big Basics Web Directory (Paperback)
     There are literally millions of Websites online today that provide a wealth of information on a variety of topics. There are a handful of good Internet Website directories available that can help surfers find the information they need. Most of these are bulky, though, and can take a while to thumb through. Que and Macmillan Computer Publishing has published The Big Basics Web Directory to provide readers with reviews of their top picks!

     Que's editors have selected the best Website in each of the 101 categories covered in the book. Additionally, four more (best of the rest) Websites in each of these categories are also reviewed. Topics include business, car buying, computers, cooking, education, government, health, hobbies, humor, investing, job searching, news, pets, religion, software, sports, travel, as well as a number of controversial issues.

     This large 8 1/2" by 11" directory features quarter-page screen shots of every Website reviewed. A convenient listing at the back of the book lists every Website and its URL to provide quick and easy access to them. Website reviewers will find this directory to be a great reference tool for review material when facing a deadline. Website designers can pick up some top-notch Website design ideas as well!

     This concise directory will point readers to some of the best Websites available at the turn of a page. Thumb through it at your leisure. There is something of interest here for everyone! Highly recommended!
