• Enroll at Stanford and take a lot of upper-division CS.
• Read any of the above books.
• Read Weaving the Web by Tim Berners-Lee, the man who invented the World Wide Web.  This book will be published on September 22, 1999.
• Read Netscape Time by Jim Clark.  It's received mixed reviews, and we weren't willing to spend the money necessary to purchase it in hardcover. Even so, it will be interesting to see what Netscape's founder has to say about his role in the development of the World Wide Web.

We would like to thank Dr. Eric Roberts, Nitin Chopra, and Stacey Berkowitz for making Sophomore College '99 such a wonderful learning experience.

We would also like to thank our mothers.

And thank you, whomever you are, for reading this.
