Learn More, Faster with Treehouse

Treehouse

My sponsor, Treehouse, has mastered teaching complex development concepts and techniques using the visual media; something not easy to do, and neither is learning anew technology from scratch without proper guidance.  Tutorials are nice but oftentimes make assumptions about current knowledge and don't tend to keep the reader's attention.  Treehouse's videos are concise but provide enough detail to get eager developers up and moving quickly.  Treehouse is giving my readers one month free to see what I mean, so go ahead and give them a try.
