As the author of the book: Yep, fully agree. Of course it drives traffic to my site, but even I thought that it has been a bit too often on HN now :-)
Today, Robert Scoble refered to the site, which I think is the reason it got posted here once more.

Well, I still appreciate that this article came up again. I'm still new to HN and I wouldn't have gone through the search method to find a beginner's guide to Node.
Thanks again for creating this tutorial. Great introduction to Node and also well written.

I'm guessing since the poster is a really new member, they either don't know how to search for old posts or didn't realize that this was a repost.
I started learning node not too long ago, this book was invaluable to me. It's well worth reading twice if not more. I bought it on kindle along with how to node[1] (which was also very well informed, but not as well written).

nodebeginner.org was awesome for getting acquainted with node.js. I purchased the book and was a bit disappointed that it didn't add a whole lot more than the tutorial but I was glad to support your efforts. Thanks for making this.
I always thought it's quite nice that the whole content is available for free, but I can see that there is room for disappointment even in this scenario :-(
I appreciate the work that was invested in this book. Thumbs up!
But:
"The aim of this document is to get you started with developing applications for Node.js, ..."
I never develop applications for node.js but instead with node.js. Yes, some people in the community seem to do the first, but serious projects are my goal.

that's 99% likely to be a minor phrasing bug rather than indicative of a fundamentally different attitude as you seem to suggest.
Exactly. It's fixed with https://github.com/ManuelKiessling/NodeBeginnerBook/commit/5... and the site has been updated.

6 months ago, 4 months ago... It may be a good book, but it isn't new, or as far as I know, changed significantly enough to warrant being listed on the front page.
