I'd been meaning to read this for a while and considering this is a book about websites, I thoroughly enjoyed it and found myself laughing out loud at certain parts. It is admittedly a tad dated -- but really, any book about the Web inherently becomes dated ... likely by the time it makes it to print. But it was a nice, amusing reality check and included some great quips and one-liners that will make explaining Web best practices to clients and colleagues easy and memorable.

It's really amazing that for a book 10 years old, most of Seth's comments are just as relevant today. I guess that's why he's so successful! The web page screenshots are a trip down memory lane, and though the specific issues don't appear on the web often today, the overall principles are being ignored left and right! I wish he'd do an update--it wouldn't be hard at all! Easy read, and worth the 30 minutes it takes to read it!

Seth Godin is the guy who always asks you questions that you have to figure out, but along the way gives tons of examples and tips. All of his books are put into the simplest-non-technical-reading form so anyone can pick up on it super fast! This book definitely touches on the marketing fundamentals behind web design and why they are important.

"The Big Read Fez" is essentially a series of examples, showing how to make any website better. Considering how difficult some of these concepts have proven for some web designers, I think that the structure of this book really makes a difference in getting across the central ideas.

Fast read. Definitely dated (although it was interesting to see how little Amazon has changed in 10 years). A good overview of the basics - should be a starting point for other things.

It was written in 2001, so some of the context is outdated, but this book gave me an outstanding paradigm shift and new direction for company website and business model in general.

Ok book on web design, though not nearly as clear as Don't Make Me Think. He gave examples and problems, but no pictures of solutions.

This book was excellent--short and sweet and to-the-point. I would recommend it to anyone who is an entrepreneur and wants to or already uses web sites for business. It has several recommendations that I never thought of but also reviewed several things I already knew.

A very short book about web site design. It's a good book but I basically was already thinking along these lines so I didn't get much extra out of it. Would probably be a good book for people that don't use the net much and want to build a web site.

Seth Godin writes well: concisely, clearly, and succinctly. This book is therefore a really quick read that will instantly improve any marketing efforts you undertake.
His thoughts on Power Point are all but revolutionary.

"The Big Red Fez: How To Make Any Web Site Better" by Seth Godin is a book that can be read very quickly, yet it has a lot of useful information in it.
