Editorial Reviews

Review

I couldn't imagine being a Juno member and not having this book. Sure, sending and receiving e-mail for free is great, but Rankin's book goes beyond common e-mail and shows you how to get the most from your Juno experience -- Borger News-Herald, March 1998

If you expect your technical support call to last longer than seven minutes, and most of them do, then you might consider buying this book first -- The Morning Call, May 1998

If you're a beginner using e-mail or a beginner with a computer, this book is a trove of information, because it details all the basics of sending and receiving e-mail and offers hints and tips you probably didn't know about -- The State, June 1998

This book, written by Bob Rankin and published by San Francisco's No Starch Press, can't help but make things easier for most Juno users. The book covers the basics of using Juno, how to maximize Juno's potential, how to troubleshoot problems, basics of using the Internet and much more. I think it's well worth the $14.95 cover price. -- David Hoye, Online Editor, Arizona Central, April 27th, 1998

1.0 out of 5 stars JUNO Free E-Mail and More!, May 29, 2000

By 

Kenneth Liebler - See all my reviews

This review is from: Juno: Free E-Mail and More (Paperback)

Writing about a software package is a very risky thing! The features keep on changing. This book might have been right on a few years ago, but JUNO has moved on. The book appears to be relavant to JUNO 1.49, which was for E-Mail only. Now, JUNO offers JUNO 4.0, which is for FREE internet access as well as offering many other free features. I look forward to an update.

2.0 out of 5 stars Strictly for the beginner level computer user., February 6, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Juno: Free E-Mail and More (Paperback)

Though I found this book light and easy to read, the information presented was quite vague in many areas. Mr. Rankin did not delve too deeply into any of the subjects covered, though he did discuss quite a few different methods of accessing various internet services by using email only.

As a longtime computer user and programmer, I found the information in the book to leave alot lacking. The majority of information can be found on the web by using the many available search engines.

In my opinion, if you are completely new to computers and email, this book may be helpful, though some of the topics covered may tend to be confusing. For medium level and advanced computer users, I'd suggest going to the search engines and finding the same information.
