Summary: For the Do It Yourself-er
Review: Contribute 2 is great for the Do It Yourselfer. As a professional web designer, I have clients that want to update the pages themselves for commercial and / or corporate intranet sites. They need a book to guide them. This is the book.The book provides an easy approach to get up and running with Contribute 2. The visual aspect of the book is definitely a plus, especially for those "non-techie" people and clients you may have. I did like the fact that the author gets straight to the point and tells you what you want to know, without a lot of "techno-babble" or pontification. The tips were helpful too!

Summary: assistive technology for expressing the human condition
Review: What we have here, is [an opportunity to] communicate.
"With Contribute2, anyone can add content to Web sites, without the possibility of accidentally breaking the site." While this may not be a time for breakthrough products that change our lives, our digital lifestyle does bring us explosive opportunities, but perhaps as individuals we can only experience them in slow motion. There may be an innate, fundamental kind of desperate drive for self-expression that is neither selfish nor narcissistic but is simply the human condition. Individual, individualized Web pages offer an avenue for personalized expression so necessary to fully engage the most normal psyche, as well as those seemingly "alienated" personalities that can otherwise be so easily entranced through intense immersion into such as excessive ... pastimes or ... fundamentalism. Like the Gutenberg effect before, this communications technology helps release and fashion that self-expression fundamental to the human condition. The personal Web page of our digital lifestyle is both Medium and Message. To become digitally literate in empowering self-expression, Contribute2, being easy and concise, provides an appropriate beginner's grammar for imposing the required syntax of our new digital lifestyle. This visual QuickStart guide shows you how to lively step through that portal for newly communicating with family, friends, and colleagues. Until the arrival of first-person, 4D navigation through metadata with visually dynamic linkages, this may be the best assistive technology we get for awhile.
