To anyone who can't self study with books
as the title says

If you have an internet connection (which you must or wouldn't be reading this) and find self study with books hard.

Why not subscribe to some of the Leaning material on youtube there are plenty of topics from A+ training to more advanced topics.

I my self am subscribed to free blogs from preplogic and palaestra training there are lots of videos from understand NTFS and TCP/IP to full blown networking topics.

There are also plenty of updates and enough info on the videos to learn the topics included.

I hope some people will find this info useful as I have read over the last few days in peoples threads that they find studying with books hard and would preffer a course, well this is another alternative to a course and its free.

Great idea, this should suppliment my study books perfectly. Especially as I work a lot of night shifts so reading a book at 3am might be tough, but watching a video is a lot easier...I might be in zombie mode when watching them but maybe it will sink into my subconscious somewhere!
