Each video in the series is based on a specific book in the highly successful Step by Step print book series, and adds best practices, tips, tricks, and enhanced explanations and commentaries. Here is what the Microsoft Press said: So far, as I mentioned above, there are three series of videos, each series is about 4 hours long, which are divided into many small video tutorials for Windows 7, Word 2010, and Excel 2010. The great thing is that if these videos work, meaning that people find them interesting and resourceful, Microsoft may continue creating more of them. Why free? We’d like to know what you think of these and if you find them helpful. We all learn in different ways, and if there’s enough demand for video editions or companions to existing Microsoft Press books, we’ll certainly consider making the commitment to produce more. We’re even open to the possibility of creating learning resources exclusively in video.”
