Synopsis
A few years ago, geeks, academics, and soda-fueled computer jocks populated the Internet. Today, everyone – from CEOs to seventh-grade students to weekend technology fiends – wants to get online. And people don’t just want to surf. They each want to carve out a unique personal space: They want a Web site.

Until recently, only the technically gifted and artistically inclined attempted to publish sites on the Web. Not anymore. FrontPage 2000 brings new ease to Web publishing. Without any knowledge of HTML (the language used to create Web pages), you can use FrontPage to build and manage a beautiful and sophisticated Web site, complete with exciting effects you see on those other sites.

Amazon.com Review
The whole world is watching! In the past few years, the Internet has given us unprecedented publishing opportunities, and Microsoft has made it easier than ever to reach like-minded souls across the Web with FrontPage, its Web publishing application. If you're new to the world of Web design, FrontPage 2000 for Dummies can walk you through each step of the process with grace and good humor--though you may need to get a more comprehensive reference if you want to explore the intricacies of HTML.

The writing is clear, funny, and well-organized, moving from tool to tool with plenty of tips and tricks crammed in along the way. You learn the secrets of everything from basic file manipulation to multimedia, themes, and image maps. Unfortunately, the writing isn't well-complemented with images; the shortage of screenshots is a serious flaw for visual learners.

The book's accompanying CD-ROM is packed with shareware and trial software: Netscape 4.05, Paintshop Pro, WinZip, and plenty more. You'll also find sample files, bonus chapters, and the URLs mentioned within the text. FrontPage 2000 for Dummies is a good, basic introduction and a refreshing supplement to the often dry text found in other Web publishing books--but even the dumbest FrontPage user will probably need more than this. --Rob Lightner
