In Pictures Is Now Apparently All Free

Posted: Apr 23, 2008

Wayyyyyy back in 2006 I mentioned a site called In Pictures, available at http://inpics.net/ . This site sold downloadable tutorials for a variety of computer applications and languages. I mentioned it at the time because it was offering a free downloads period.

I was reminded of the site recently when another blog mentioned it. I went back and checked on it, and apparently the site no longer offers downloads. Instead, all the tutorials are freely available on the Web. Among the tutorials are several Office applications, open office, and some Web programming basics.

The appeal of these tutorials are that they are very screenshot oriented, with page by page instructions -- "Do THIS and THIS happens." You can't get deep into an application with this method, but it's a great way to get the basic functionality. Be sure to <a href="http://inpics.net/notify.html">sign up for new tutorial notifications</a> to keep up with the latest offerings.
