LearnFlash.com Video Podcasts
Learning Flash by watching videos is a very efficient way to learn specific techniques without going through books or online tutorials. As I mentioned in a previous post about online learning, there are many website that offer video tutorials on different web technologies including Flash.
LearnFlash.com is one of them and they offer one of the largest selections of Flash video tutorials.
What they also have is a monthly video podcast which highlights some tips and tricks from their vast library of Flash videos. Here are some of the videos (.zip) that I have collected that would be of use to the beginner Flash user. These videos can be used with any version of Flash, but are presented in either Flash MX2004 or Flash 8.
