Educational DVDs - Who Loves Them???

back in 2001..I was working as a retoucher & color corrector for Penthouse Photographer Stephen Hicks. He asked me one day to build a web page for his site and I was like ..."shit man, I'm a color corrector / retoucher. I don't know noth'n about building a web page"! He "suggested" that I figure it out because I may need to build or edit some pages in the future.

Immediately I went to the internet and start searching for an application to use for building web pages and found DreamWeaver. I ordered the program and had it FedEx'd in. Then I found Lynda.com and ordered a DreamWeaver educational DVD and also had it FedEx'd in. I spent a whole weekend learning as much as I could about DreamWeaver and when I walked in the office on Monday morning....I was ready to start buildling & editing web pages. Stephen was blown away and I was too.

It was at that moment that I realized the power of educational DVDs. For me, it's the way to learn any new apps. I hate reading books and manuals.

Anywayz, just got me to wondering if you guys love educational DVDs as much as I do
