Abstract

Of course, the Internet can be used for much more than work. While the last chapter focused on the business opportunities opened up by netbook computing, here we'll look at the things you can do for fun. Your netbook is a powerful tool that can easily stream music or video for your entertainment. If you're a sports fan, you can use your netbook to keep track of your favorite team and discuss results with like-minded fans. If you're at home and stuck for something to cook for dinner, you can find recipes no matter what the dietary requirements. If you're planning a vacation, you'll find the best deals with the least hassle online. There is so much available out there on the Internet. I've cherry-picked the best here to get you started. Enjoy!
