The first tutorial. Soon… soon…

May 12, 2009 By 5 Comments

I’ve decided that the first action I’m going to take toward addressing the findings of my survey is going to be to create some step-by-step tutorials.

If you listen to what’s below (audio only, accordingly), you get to hear me fight with the service as well. Fun times.
