Announcement #1

Looks like Carl has posted the first in a series of How-To videos that we're doing together.

This first video is a basic VB.NET OO concepts tutorial, but the plan is to have VB.NET and C# videos once we figure out the process. There are, of course, going to be some rough spots as we get started, but overall we're pretty pleased with the result of our first try (especially given that we put it together at about 2:00 AM (Carl came into the office, got me out of bed, and said, "Hey! Want to do some training videos?")).

I'm really excited about this. This is the sort of thing I've been wanting to do for years, so it's pretty cool to get to be a part of it.

I spent a few hours last week hunched over my tablet, learning how to do Flash animation. It cost me a lot of time that could have been spent blogging, but I think it was worth it.

I'll leave you to ponder what this means for the world.
