One excellent Internet guide which I have not seen mentioned recently (nor
located in the PACS-L archives) is NUSIRG-- the NorthWestNet User Services
Internet Resource Guide. It contains major chapters on much of what is
in the typical resource guides, but the writing is very clear, examples
are profusely used, and the Postscript version is nicely formatted.
It is available in either ASCII or Postscript versions by ftp from
ftphost.nwnet.net, in the nic/nwnet/user-guide directory. Note that the
Postscript version is quite long--almost 300 pp.--and the files are
consequently sizeable as well. I think it makes a nice complement to the
"Zen and the Art of the Internet" document.
