Composed of 100 bite-sized entries of 400 to 600 words each, Netymology weaves together stories, etymologies and analyses around digital culture''s transformation, and creation, of words. Tom Chatfield presents a kaleidoscopic, thought-provoking tour through the buried roots of some of the digital age''s most common terms: from the @ and Apple symbols, to HTML and Trojan horses, to the twisted histories of new forms of slang, memes, text messages and gaming terms. There''s also discussion of the trends behind digital words, and of the ways language itself is being shaped by new forces - and revelations about how these forces are, in turn, reshaping us.

Das Buch ist ein unverzichtbarer Leitfaden für die Reise in die digitale Zukunft, ob es um die Erforschung des Deep Web geht, das 99 Prozent des Internets umfasst und für die meisten Suchmaschinen unzugänglich bleibt, oder um die erweiterte Realität, die unsere Art und Weise, mit der Welt in Kontakt zu treten, grundlegend ändern wird.
