Educating the Open-source Community With Showmedo

Although as important as the software it supports, education and documentation are relatively neglected in the Open-source world. Coders love to code, and explaining how best to use or improve the software tends to be deferred or even sidelined.

At Showmedo we believe the community can play a vital role here and also say thanks for the tools and software that make our lives easier. If you have a piece of software you love or a programming langugage you are enthusiastic about, why not make a screencast showing others how to use it? All the stuff you wish you'd been told, the tips, tricks, insights that would have saved you time and frustration.

Screencasting is easier than you think, and we're happy to help you. You can email us for advice or just use some of the how-to screencasts on the site. This screencasting learning-path is a good place to start.

Kudos and Thanks for Kevin

Wow. Makes me wanna start learning Python.

As a c# developer a real candidate for developing a new web project is ASP.NET MVC.

I really have to re-evaluate this...

That is mind blowing.

Far to fast for me to duplicate from that , but convincing that I need to look closer.

Fast, but a good intro to the ability of TurboGears to leverage a small amount of code into a decent application. Keep 'em coming, especially updating them for new major releases of TG. This one motivated me to get going with TG on my project.

Very nice video. Turbo Gears is a very nice framework for building webs. I will download it and play. Looks more polished than those other frameworks.
