This is probably the most useful, most practical guide to online love, dating, and yes, over-the-'net sexual encounters. It's an even-handed, practical and commonsense guide to flirtation, love, and cybersex over the 'net--but it's not an alarmist approach, rather just a safe and sensible caution. This won't be the number-one book for those into voyeuristic thrills and...

3.0 out of 5 stars Outdated, but with interesting stories
This book has quite a few interesting stories, but as time has passed it has become less useful in practical terms. I think the authors were a bit behind even when the book was published in 1996 (they talk about BBS's and Genie and AOL, with barely any mention of the web). The internet changes so quickly, any book would probably be quickly outdated.

This is probably the most useful, most practical guide to online love, dating, and yes, over-the-'net sexual encounters. It's an even-handed, practical and commonsense guide to flirtation, love, and cybersex over the 'net--but it's not an alarmist approach, rather just a safe and sensible caution. This won't be the number-one book for those into voyeuristic thrills and saucy, erotic stories... but for anyone who finds the idea of online love intriguing but a bit daunting, challenging or scary, you definitely need to check out a copy of this book first. (Just be careful; you probably don't want to be reading this on the subway!) : )
