1.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly useful for such poor quality, October 17, 2008
By 
PR (Colorado) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Advanced WordPress Tutorials (CD-ROM)
The product review says 44 pages. It's actually 33. This is not a book and a CD. It's a CD with two identical versions of a book on it. One .pdf and one .doc.
The sound quality is unacceptable. It's difficult to listen to, and on one the rss video, the sound cuts out at 1:35 and doesn't return.
Having said that, the information contained in these materials is easily worth $15 to $25. Quintin Brown has culled through the many useless wordpress themes, plugins and widgets that are freely available on the internet and recommends some of his very useful favorites.
If I were Mr. Brown, I would figure out what went wrong with the sound and fix it. The effort is really too good to be saddled with this kind of criticism. Seriously, fix the sound and I'd give it 4 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Learning Wordpress, April 6, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Advanced WordPress Tutorials (CD-ROM)
In learning Wordpress I needed to get up to speed fast for three blogs being developed. This tutorial was excellent! I had the blogs on the web immediately. I even had a immediate, helpful email response from the author regarding a question on development. I recommend this tutorial!
