Book Reviews of DotNetNuke For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech))

Book Review: A good way to start
Summary: 3 Stars

This is a good start. It gives you a good basic overview, and it's easier than hitting the forums or printing out all the white papers. I've kind of avoided the 'For Dummies' titles in the past, but I've had good luck with them recently. And this is definitely a title I've had good luck with. It's already kind of outdated, but that's the nature of technology.

This book does provide a very solid introduction, and it really does give you everything you need to start a basic site.

I don't agree with the reviewer who said this book is oriented toward programmers. It's not at all! If you have even a cursory understanding of how the web works, you'll have a site up and running in no time.

Having used DNN for a few months now, however, I'm seeking something that has more meat. Unfortunately, DNN is free, and you get what you pay for. It's good and getting better, but it's not as slick or bug free as I'd like. So... Once you get your site up and running, you'll probably wish you were a programmer so you'd know how to fix all the dumb quirks you'll discover.

See you in the DNN Forum!
