These video tutorials come from

They are one of the leading training companies in video learning on web design and development technologies. Lenox Web gets nothing from these links. But we have used their tutorials in the past and we can attest that they are great! Check them out; they have tutorials covering many different topics. And they are reasonably priced.

But why Videos?
Videos are great at getting you up to speed on a particular topic very quickly.  We've read our fair share of 1000 page technical books, and many of them are great, but sometimes you just need to see someone performing a task and listen to their explanation.  As the old adage goes, "a picture is worth a thousand words."  As visual and audio learners, videos help us quickly understand 80% of what we need to know to get started, and after we have a fundamental grasp on a given technology, we can find the last 20% in the online help, in books or on the discussion forums.
