Real tutorials

The tutorial series from Chief Woodworker is the best. The instructor's directions are simple and repetative for us slow learners.
On the other hand, most of those found on u-tube can hardly be called "tutorials". The instructor races thru the program as if to say, "Hey look at me and how fast I can race thru this little program"; often accompanied by some bizarre selection of loud obnoxious music. Perhaps tutorials should carry some kind of learning curve rating. Then we can better choose to satisfy our learning level.drafter

YouTube would be quite handy however. When you make annotations to the video, you can also define a "pause" time the video should stop playing (look at the top left corner to see that small "clock" counting down during the video). So by carefully considering how much time isneeded to read the instructions, you can create quite well understandable tutorials even when taking the screen capture, you work at the pace as you usually do.
