I am a firm believer that you can learn how to do virtually anything with Youtube. There are so many video tutorials online that there really isn’t any excuse for not knowing how to do something. Or, at least, not knowing where to start.
This doesn’t mean that anyone can learn to become good at something. That is still going to take good, old-fashioned hard work. Along with talent and probably some luck. But if there is something you want to learn how to do, search Youtube or Google Video and chances are you will find someone showing you how to get started.
For instance, I wanted to start blogging/podcasting. I found a video on how to create a WordPress blog in under 4 minutes, an entire series on how to get started in podcasting, and another series on how to use Screenflow.
I genuinely wouldn’t be surprised if Youtube videos aren’t replacing entire college classes in the near future.
Anyway, this post came from a question I was asked by a client. She said she didn’t know how to post videos to Youtube straight from her phone. I was typing out an email with the instructions when I thought, why don’t I just show her with a video?
Have you contributed yet? If you know how to do something, make a video and show others. And if you don’t know how to make a video, ask me!
