Glossaries
Acromania
- ZDNet's glossary just for acronyms, which constitute about 99% of internet
vocabulary.
Internet Terms
- Matisse Enzer's thorough and very helpful glossary. If you want to know
what SQL is or are just curious what "jpeg" stands for, here's the place
to go.
A
Kindler, Gentler Glossary for Net Neophytes -- and Others - Cathy
Young's commentary is chatty and occasionally rib-breakingly funny (see
entries for "cyberpunk" or "hacker," for instance). Not as extensive as
Enzer's glossary (see above), but much more fun and a great introduction.
Lots
of Links - these are sites that offer a large
number of related resources
Culture, Class
and Cyberspace - Arthur McGee's list of resources "dealing with
the intersection of ethnicity, culture, class, poverty, computers, and
cyberspace," divided into sections on Ethnicity and Culture, Class and
Poverty, and Gender and Sexuality.
