Google publishing '20things I learned about browsers and the web'


Well, just how cool is this ? Google brings out a children's style book to each the average person about all things Internet. LONG OVERDUE. As much as the Internet has grown and become part of more and more peoples lifes, the general understanding about it has not grown at the same rate. Who doesn't know anybody who says 'the internet is down', when there computer doesn't work or the web-browser crashes ? :-).

I think it is very smart and helpful to provide a means for the general public to better understand what the web is about and how it works. Not in all detail - just enough to understand the good, bad and ugly of its existence and use. Being able to understand how computer viruses work in their basics, helps to understand not to open attachments and execute them because you are curious.
