Provide Content Review & Receive a Free Copy

27 Sep

Wes Nolte and I have been hard at work on the book, really burning the midnight oil. We have a rough-cut of all chapters and Wes has even designed a nifty-looking cover. Our goal is to have the book wrapped up within the next 4-6 weeks, just in time for Dreamforce 10.

We are looking to send out a rough draft of the book to 3-5 people to review to see if we missed anything or should elaborate on certain topics. This is not a line by line, “you missed a comma here” type of review. Just a high level content review. In return we’ll provide you with a free electronic copy of the book complete with both pictures and actual words <g>. We’d like to send the book out later this week and have it returned by next Thursday (Oct 7th) with your comments.

If you can have your comments returned to us by then please a comment with your info below and we’ll add the first 5 people that signup.

Thanks!

    Hello Jeff (and Wes,)
    I would love the opportunity to review your book. I always love reading books not written by the company that develops the technology, but people who USE the technology. You get a better real-life understanding of how things work.

    Thanks,
    Jonathan

    I read Jason O.’s and David Taber’s book in the past year and looking forward to reading yours. If you’re still seeking reviewers for the rough draft, this is a perfect week for me: my only plans were to study for my upcoming cert exam!

    I’ve been working heavily in Salesforce for 3 years. For the last 18 months, I’ve been developing and supporting Visualforce applications. If your handbook includes information on Visualforce, I’d be happy to assist.

    I would be interested as well in reviewing the book. I know the Deveopment w/Force.com book was a little more advanced but it lacked detail I feel and some hows and whys.

    • jasono October 15, 2010 at 4:07 pm #

      Brian, would love to get more of that type of feedback on the book. I’m writing the 2nd edition now, so it’s a great time to contribute your thoughts about how to improve the content.
