Answers to Over 40 of the Most Commonly Asked Questions
by Stephen
Ivaskevicius and Patrick
O’Neal
"I
never thought I would see the day when a book would rival the Internet as a source
of customized, up-to-date information on a technical topic. The day has come."
-- Greg Brown, Vice President
of Operations and Technology, The Tech Museum of Innovation "Stephen
and Patrick have done a wonderful job with Happy About PayPal Website Payments,
sharing their wisdom about the most common problems people run into. This book
is a must for anyone who wants to ensure they get every penny they are due."
-- Jared M. Spool, Usability Expert, UIE.com "This
is a great book for PayPal merchants and developers. Easy-to-read and full of
tips and techniques that can be applied immediately. As a PayPal merchant that
doesn't generate much revenue with PayPal today, I learned a lot from this book.
I expect to be able to dramatically increase the revenue I produce."
Mitchell
Levy, PayPal Merchant and CEO, Happy About "Smart
companies take great effort to nurture and sustain a vital developer community.
This book pays tribute to the PayPal developer community by capturing the essentials
required for a new developer (or merchant) to participate productively in the
community and allows them to leverage the wisdom of those who have come before."
--
Rajiv Dholakia, V.P. Strategy & Solutions, PGP Corporation "This
book is an invaluable asset! It provides clear, concise answers to the most common
issues that a PayPal developer/merchant faces. Stephen and Patrick are the two
most knowledgeable PayPal developers out there; they are the biggest contributors
in the community and have closer relationships with the developers than any other
advocates of the PayPal system."
-- Shannon Sofield, Lead Developer,
PayLoadz.com and PayPalDev.org
