Visual Studio .NET Tips and Tricks by Minh Nguyen is not a long book (120+ pages), but man is it packed with info. There are a ton of screenshots too, mostly of toolbar icons so you can see what you’re supposed to be clicking. And almost everything is presented with the keyboard shortcut associated with it! Shortcut junkies like myself will find this book as useful as the mousey-types. The tips specify which versions of Visual Studio they are applicable to, and coverage includes Visual Studios 2002, 2003, and 2005 (Beta 1).

Like the book, I’m going to keep this review short. If you aren’t already an IDE power user (if you’re not sure, you probably aren’t) then grab this book.
