This chapter discusses how you use your Macintosh to connect to the fastest
growing organization on Earth: the online community. This community
gathers in private places provided by subscriber-only services and in the
public space called the Internet. With a modem and the right software, you
have a couple of options for reaching these meeting places. Once you arrive
you can exchange e-mail messages, browse the World Wide Web, gather
information on topics of interest to you, participate in discussion groups,
download software, and use many other services. This chapter provides some
explanations and instructions to help you connect.
