    Do you watch Youtube tutorials?

    I have a random question, I always watch Youtube tutorials for everything I need help with, do you also watch tutorials often?

    Not for everything.
    GIMP tutorials yes, for example, because it's so much easier to understand how to do something in programs like that when I see it done in a video, rather than having to read a heap of text, and hope that I understand what the author was trying to explain.
    When it comes to programming, never.

    Do you watch tutorials for webdesign (HTML, CSS, JS ETC) or do you read guides and stuff in text instead?

    Sometimes. Only when I don't completely understand what I have to do or why things are the way they are.
    But, when I do, I make sure I watch a few videos so that I know what is being said is true and someone isn't pulling a quick one over me.

    ~I'm not a regular at doing this, but it is handy.

    If I think I can find a video tutorial somewhere beyond Youtube I will. Youtube is good for very strange tutorials that you pretty much can't find anywhere else. Like how to make a TV antenna out of a beer can.

    Always.

    My main tutorial mania comes from Photoshop, After Effects, and any Adobe program that I need. Although Google searches come first as I find article writers are better help than 12 year olds who don't know how to cut out their loading time when editing their video (no offense to 12 year olds).

    Yes! Now a days I prefer to use the YouTube tutorial rather than reading. I believe that the actual execution of the techniques would be much more appealing and understandable.

    yes, I find it a lot easier to learn visually than via reading reading.

    I don't watch them myself, but whenever someone asks about something technical, I always just say "Youtube it"!

    I think knowledge acquired greater reading rather than viewing, how about you???
