Default Lynda.com
Hey everyone,

I was wondering if anyone uses the paid subscription to Lynda.com? It seems like it could be a low-cost professional development tool and I've heard some good things about it but thought I'd ask around here.

I use it and I love it. I used it when I started to build my website to learn WordPress and now I am using it for add on to my Microsoft Skills as well. I did not get the subscription with the exercise files, just the regular one.

I have the $25.00 subscription and learned InDesign and other Adobe products from the tutorials. Very good learning tool.

I use it and love it! I started out with the subscription that included exercise files, but I found that I didn't really need them so I downgraded my subscription.

I signed up recently and so far have watched one tutorial. I did learn something and the format was easy to follow. For $25 a month I think it's a great deal and the nice thing is, you can watch and learn when it's most convenient to you.

I love using Lynda.com. I only use the basic, without the exercise files. I have taken courses on Wordpress, Email Marketing, and Social Media Marketing. I take lots of notes while watching the short video lessons. I like that I can pause, continue, and rewatch each video as many times as I feel I need to totally understand each lesson.
