I also bought the NetTalk book. I have to say that I was thinking that the book should be included with the software as I was paying for it. Now that I am reading it I have to say that it is worth every penny. I can see the care and effort you put into it. I appreciate the whole “hold the beginners hand” approach because that is exactly what I needed to confront this topic at all. The internet is to me a very broad generality and you have distilled the aspects that are important to getting a web app up and running. - John Welch

I have had great benefit from reading this book. After a few hours of reading, I moved from a 4 to an 8 (out of 10) - both in using NetTalk templates but also to understand and use CSS, etc. Great book to get started with NetTalk and do a some business - fast. - Niels Larsen

I recommend this book to anyone wanting to get working with NetTalk Web Server. - Chris Cordes

In addition to the printed material, the workshop session in Orlando were recorded live on video. These are also available when purchasing the book. Spread over 2 days the recordings are approximately 12 hours long.
