Like anyone else communicating, working, and shopping on the web, you may have incurred significant problems or "costs" associated with living online. These tend to fall into two categories: commercial costs for consumers and social costs for individuals. In his book "The Internet Trap", Dr. Ashesh Mukherjee explains why the internet isn't all fun and games. This audio-only summary from getAbstract reviews the key takeaways. Learn about the five major problems — too much temptation, too much information, too much customization, too many comparisons, and too little privacy — and Mukherjee's smart, practical solutions. getAbstract suggests stepping away from the screen and reading this book to anyone who gets lost surfing the web too often.
