TL;DR: This case study describes concrete configuration techniques that helped to get the best possible performance out of server resources at Netscape Communications, which designed, implemented, and babysat the Netscape Web site from its inception until traffic grew to about five million hits per day.
Abstract: Providing World Wide Web or FTP service on a small scale is a well-solved problem, but scaling server technology for a site that accepts millions of connections per day can easily push multiple machines and networks to the bleeding edge. In this case study, we describe concrete configuration techniques that helped us get the best possible performance out of server resources at Netscape Communications. We designed, implemented, and babysat the Netscape Web site from its inception until traffic grew to about five million hits per day. The site now gets more than 120 million hits per day. We describe many iterations through the loop of watching the load increase, finding various failures, and fixing what was broken. We hope our experience will help readers configure a high-performance server from the start and then know what to look for when it becomes overloaded.
TL;DR: Cascading Style Sheets: The Definitive Guide is the first major title to cover CSS in a way that acknowledges and describes current browser support, instead of simply describing the way things work in theory.
Abstract: From the Publisher:
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is poised to make its mark on the Web in the year 2000. With good implementations in Internet Explorer 5.0 and Opera 3.5, and 100% support expected in Netscape's "Mozilla" browser, signs are that CSS is rapidly becoming a useful, reliable, and powerful tool for Web authors.
CSS is the HTML 4.0-approved method for controlling visual presentation on Web pages. Cascading Style Sheets: The Definitive Guide offers a complete, detailed review of CSS1 properties and other aspects of CSS1. Each property is explored individually in detail with discussion of how each interacts with other properties. There is also information on how to avoid common mistakes in interpretation. This book is the first major title to cover CSS in a way that acknowledges and describes current browser support, instead of simply describing the way things work in theory. It offers both advanced and novice Web authors a comprehensive guide to implementation of CSS.
Cascading Style Sheets: The Definitive Guide targets veteran Web authors who have already invested thousands of hours in learning HTML and writing Web pages and are wondering why they'd need to learn a brand new language of style. This book supplies those dubious but curious Web authors with the information they need to easily implement CSS to their Web site.
This book also addresses an audience of novice Web authors who are already straining to learn all of the tags and attributes of HTML and can benefit now from implementing CSS correctly instead of repeating the mistakes of the past.

TL;DR: It's common to talk about the usability of browser technology, and how the advent of easy-to-use Web browsers has opened the Internet to unprecedented numbers of people with little or no technical sophistication, but less common to consider the usable of the entire Internet architecture.
Abstract: It's common to talk about the usability of browser technology, and how the advent of easy-to-use Web browsers has opened the Internet to unprecedented numbers of people with little or no technical sophistication. It's less common to consider the usability of the entire Internet architecture, and the World Wide Web in particular, by users at all levels: programmer developers, administrators, Webmasters and end-users alike. Netscape Communications offers an application architecture and programming model to extend the same usability that created the information-based (first-wave) Internet to a services-based (second-wave) Internet.
