Kari finished training in iMovie 11!

I think I am a fan of Lynda.com

as a form of instruction.  It was mere curiosity when I first logged in with my special membership code and was overwhelmed with the vast selection of topics.

In particular there were two items I always wanted to improve upon. Guess what? They were listed! Photography and Illustrator were now within reach. So I did some sneaky peeking until it became obvious I had to get cracking on my actual class assignments.

But it didn’t stop there, oh no! I wasn’t in the iMovie 11 tutorial for half an hour before they started dangling other programs that can be used with iMovie or imported to augment my projects.

So I took the bait. No, not right away like a trout. No, I waited.

My curiosity knows no bounds and Lynda.com knows it.

See I had already gotten started on a few other areas of study and new I had to finish what I started. So the minute I finished the last training video for iMovie, still flush with a sense of accomplishment and pride, I dove into iWeb, iDVD and GarageBand.

I haven't finish photography or Illustrator, yet.

And "dove" might not be the right term. More like sticking my pinky toe in to see how the water felt.

Strictly welcome and introduction videos.

I am definitely plunging with GarageBand.  Or maybe iWeb.

Crap. Who am I fooling? I have to go with iDVD so I can share my videos and pictures with my parents, who are digitally challenged and prefer DVD over YouTube.

But first, I am off to finish creating my fantastic iMovie experience on MindMeister, which I will post on this blog tomorrow.
