Almoust mothing about Jabber Programming,
By Alex (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jabber Programming (Paperback)
Please do not be fooled by title. Less then 1/3 of the book covers Jabber programming itself. Most of book is about ... how to configure Jabber client authors developed (actually about 1/3 of book). Language is very primitive. Development environment is VB 6.0. Absolutely useless book.

A Microsoft-centric guide to using jabber clients,
By
This review is from: Jabber Programming (Paperback)
First of all, the title here is misleading. There are some snippets walking the reader through Visual Basic code, but the concepts and protocols (JEPs, XMPP, etc.) are noticeably absent. I honestly was able to read the book in a couple of hours (nothing challenging or meaty here) and found it a waste of my time. If you are having trouble installing Jabber clients, this may be a useful resource since the real focus of the book seems to be this very topic. However, the information included is also dated. Here is my recommendation: if you are looking for a decent Jabber book, start with the O'Reilly one.
