This review is from: Wordpress Foundations 2.7 Second Edition: Your Simple Step-By-Step Guide To Wordpress (Paperback)
If you've never played around with wordpress and don't know anything about UI's (user interfaces) from myspace or facebook or anything similar, then this is your book. It focuses mostly on wordpress.com which it doesn't really tell you in the description. A lot of stuff can work on both the .org and .com variants, but I probably wouldn't have bothered with this book if I had known. Still, for it's target market (i.e. your grandma) it's good and simple.

Wordpress Foundations 2.7,
By Darren Ashford (Buckinghamshire, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wordpress Foundations 2.7 Second Edition: Your Simple Step-By-Step Guide To Wordpress (Paperback)
This is great introduction into the blogging software Wordpress. With easy to follow diagrams to help you get started with this gateway to web 2.0.
It doesn't get into customizing html code but does give simple advice on using templates, widgets and plugins. Overall a good, clear introduction.

If you've never, ever done any blogging, this might be for you. That being said, it was not for me because I have blogged on a different platform; I just wanted to get a handle on Wordpress.
The reason I gave only 1 star is because this is a self-published book, and it shows it: Mr. Annis has the same mistake throughout the book, using "your" when he meant to use "you're." Small potatoes, maybe, but there are other grammatical errors throughout (using "to" instead of "too," for instance). Might not be a deal breaker for you, but it was for me. When I buy a book, I expect it to be professional down to silly things like grammar and spelling. Yes, the big publishers make mistakes from time to time, but never like this. Bottom line: If you're an utter newbie, you *may* find some good stuff in here. Otherwise, don't waste your money.
