 Great practical information. October 24, 2007

I've been buying a lot of the new SharePoint 2007 books, but this one has been the first that I've really wanted to read through all the chapters on. Unlike other books that just cover concepts, this book tells you how to actually use a particular feature and does it from the perspective of people who've had to do it rather than just the Microsoft line on how it's supposed to work.
Excellent Resource! October 9, 2007

This book is an excellent resource! I highly recommend that if you are going to be working with SharePoint 2007 that you have a copy of this book on hand as a quick reference for those "how do I..." questions that arise. I also highly recommend reading the book cover-to-cover as this book is full of practical, useful information on working with SharePoint 2007!
Great book with practical advice October 8, 2007

As the title indicates, this book has a lot of great information that you can put to work as you deploy SharePoint 2007. I like the way each chapter represents a discrete topic so that you can pull the book out when you need to accomplish a specific task and easily find the guidance you need.
Unlike some other books, this one is not just filled with info you can find in the product documentation. The MVP's that wrote the book provide advice that appears to come from actually doing real implementations. My only nitpick is that I wish there was a full chapter dedicated to InfoPath and Forms Services, but there are other books for that topic.
Definitely worth the investment for SharePoint admins or anyone else that needs details and directions to accomplish specific functionality with SharePoint. Also a handy reference for SharePoint developers that don't have any experience with the newer features of 2007 (BDC, Excel Services, etc).
Next best thing to having a Sharepoint MVP on the payroll October 4, 2007

Just got my copy of "Real World Sharepoint 2007", and I'm really glad it's here. I've been tasked with converting an old Outlook application (written in VB6) to Sharepoint 2007 and was having a lot of trouble getting a grasp on the process of building a brand-new Sharepoint site. This book really helped bring things into focus.
I like the fact that this isn't a 7-pound doorstop book. Each chapter is to the point, and covers its topic with enough detail to keep me going. I'm getting my questions answered without spending hours searching the internet for bad or misleading information or having to wade though pages and pages of irrelevant fluff.
Normally I shy away from "ensemble" books with multiple authors. Too often the writing and coverage varies from chapter to chapter, and I come away feeling cheated on topics that weren't adequately covered. Fortunately, these guys avoided that trap. Each contributor took on a topic near and dear to him, and they've all done a great job of assembling an excellent Sharepoint reference. There are things in this book that I haven't seen anyplace else, and it's been a big help in my work.
As an author, privledged to be a part of this book October 3, 2007

Full disclosure first, I am one of the authors of the book (ch4)... but only one of sixteen! Aside from my contribution (which I'll let others comment on) this is by far my favorite SharePoint v3/2007 book on the market because it offers real world experience from people in the field... not company line reporting. I have learned a ton from reading the chapters on the other topics covered in the book aside from my area of focus, specifically the admin areas, SharePoint Designer, workflow, Excel Services, BDC, branding... you name it.
