The New York Times bestselling author of Get Rich Click! “demystifies and simplifies all things tech…For any overwhelmed, overloaded, or intimidated consumers or marketers, this book is a helpful, entertaining, and motivating resource” (Publishers Weekly). Technology changes so fast that it’s easy to be intimidated by it. Our personal choices and business decisions are increasingly driven by digital “word of mouse”—and it’s essential to our success and satisfaction to take control of the gadgets, apps, and trends that are shaping our world. Covering diverse topics from how the Internet affects our health to how we can become bargain-hunting pros, Marc Ostrofsky’s book could come at no better time. In Word of Mouse, Ostrofsky reveals the ways that new technologies implant themselves in our daily lives and how we can easily take advantage of them to live, learn, buy, sell, work, play, communicate, and socialize better. This book gives readers the tools they need to dig out from under the information overload. A brilliantly thought-out assimilation of trends, case studies, forecasts, and tips for getting “plugged in,” Word of Mouse puts you in the driver’s seat of the world’s most powerful disruptive force to date and shows you how to get the most out of the web.
