If the subject is what everybody should know

Oh, and Craigslist.

Monster.com and probably a couple of other jobhunting sites I can't remember at the moment are probably good to cover too.

Anything in particular you want to know about? This stuff is to CS majors what Chaucer and Shakespeare are to English majors, and I sometimes forget what people who spent time doing other things for four years would actually have picked up.

I just found out that Yahoo has an instant messaging client too. How bout that.

Well, how *do* Flash and Java work?

I guess I mostly know about these things, but just don't feel comfortable in that environment? The Internet is not really my social milieu. I'm not "into" it enough to be well-versed in these things, but I'm young and hip enough to know what they *are,* at least. But just barely.

Hopelessly outdated at 27.

Java and Flash, once you have them installed, serve effectively as a local troupe of actors to put on plays using the stage and lighting of your local computer. This saves a lot of time and effort on the part of the servers that host webpages. Instead of putting on the whole play themselves, which they always did back when CGI (Common Gateway Interface) was the only thing around, now remote servers just get to send over the script and say "I don't care how you do this, but do this." The servers don't get overloaded, and people are rarely using all the free CPU cycles of their own computer, so everyone's happy
