lynda.com Video Training

When a company such as lynda.com offers free online video training, a person in my line of work signs up. Granted, all the videos are partial-lessons/marketing tools to get us to spend money, but the information they do provide for free is very helpful. And, hey, if you watch one of the training videos and realize you would be better off with the full lesson then it's worth your time and money. Some topics include: Google Search Tips, Podcasting, Flash 8 Video Integration, Click-to-play Videos and CSS Navigation Styles with Dreamweaver 8. Lynda.com has been producing these videos since February of this year. You can subscribe by clicking here. It's well worth your time.

Adobe Photoshop Killer Tips Podcast

I've been using Photoshop professionally for about eight years now. I'm at the point in my career where Photoshop projects can be done quickly and easily thanks to the skills I've acquired. Unfortunately there never seems to be that much time to take those skill to the next level. However, back in January, the people at The National Association of Photoshop Professionals started video podcasting a "killer tips" series that, beyond being enjoyable and easy to watch, is a great way to take your skills to a higher level. Each tip video is anywhere from one to two-and-a-half minutes. I'm hooked. Check it out in iTunes here. Disclaimer: It is important to have a good understanding of Photoshop basics in order for these podcasts to be helpful.
