Excellent book, especially for procrastinators like myself!
Like many of us, I have been kicking around this idea for a web based business for quite a while now. Good Luck!


Must-Have Book for Website Builders
This book is great for anyone who is building a new website or refreshing an old one. I also find that the book does not offer new thoughts or concept that I will need to start a web startup business.


Lively and up-to-date with some practical tips
The two main gripes I have with this book relate to its title and cover.

But that is very misleading - beneath the covers, the book is a lively and contemporary narrative that should help young start-ups with some practical tips and useful tools.
