Thank you, I am glad you guys enjoyed it. This is my first screencast on Pharo so I was not so sure about myself.
Esteban I agree, though I would like to target newcomers to Pharo than experienced Pharo coders. I will try to cut down my videos to smaller sections, or I will offer a table of contents and maybe some easy navigation so you dont have to watch 1 hour video if you dont want to to get to the feature that interests you. I will have to investigate an efficient way to do this. On Thu, Apr 24, 2014 at 4:46 PM, Esteban A.
