We have too many Roshans in LUG now. ;) Video based training is useful and incredibly insightful. I have learnt many yoga poses mainly gymnastic in nature and the advanced ones from youtube. It is wrong to do yoga without a qualified teacher but then with computers and other forms of secular knowledge the best thing to do according to me is to learn on one's own using videos but look at every source with healthy scepticism. Never believe anybody till you have tested it yourself practically. I have written an article about creating screencasts using tools on UNIX like ffmpeg and similar ones like istanbul and recordmydesktop. http://aplawrence.com/Girish/gv-screencast.html But I have not been able to do much on this later. Videos are the best way to teach and learn, no doubt about it. -Girish -- Gayatri Hitech web: http://gayatri-hitech.com SpamCheetah Spam filter: http://spam-cheetah.com _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
