Cyber- and e- are two prefixes used to indicate some connection with the internet and/or virtual reality possibilities presented by computer technology.

Cyber- is short for cybernetic. This prefix has lost some appeal from its misuse in cyber-romances that misunderstand cyberpunk and computer science.

E- is short for electronic.

Examples include cyberzines and e-zines, cyberspace, e-mail, and e-RPGs.

Other such prefixes include web- and digital-.
