However, rest assured. Behind the scenes much clever stuff is under way to provide a bespoke site with good search capability, lots of detail of books to buy, a user friendly shopping cart process and secure credit card payment facility. All currently being installed and tested behind the Admin curtain or the ‘Meta’ area as IT wizards like to call it these days. Fascinating the way they hijack words and give them new, totally baffling meanings. Wikipedia is really no help. I quote: ‘Meta- (from Greek: ŒºŒµœÑŒ¨ = “after”, “beyond”, “with”, “adjacent”, “self”), is a prefix used in English to indicate a concept which is an abstraction from another concept, used to complete or add to the latter.’ I ask you, what help is that if you have had a puncture or missed the bus? Bbooks is just off to get metaphysical and eat some metaprawns, whatever they might be. Stand by for an explanation via a metaPost.

[ Not sure what the author is talking about - In some circles "Meta Data" refers to "Data about Data" - ED]
