Excellent Foundation
I had to get up to speed on the world of WebTV quickly. This book did it for me. If you're a beginner like I was, this is the first book you should read before getting into the details through other, more industry-specific sources.

Book Behind The Times, January 17, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Inside Story of Interactive Television and Microsoft WebTV for Windows (Paperback)
There are few books available today that discuss interactive television, so it's great that there's this one to help explain it. However, as someone who has been involved in this business for 2 years now, I found the book blatantly biased toward PC-based interactive TV programming -- something that in the last year has taken a back seat to settop box-based interactive TV programming. Also, the vendors and producers mentioned in the book are not necessarily the industry leaders. The book makes no mention of Screamingly Different Entertainment, B3TV, Mixed Signals Technologies, or Wink. Take this book for what it is: a corporately penned tale about interactive TV with an agenda, but by no means a comprehensive, balanced overview.
