  • Interesting that YouTube is so useful for that, but then I suppose some of it is a bit like the Open University on steroids. :)

    Cheers.

  • I used to feel guilty about looking for ideas on how to solve problems at work by looking on YouTube, or refreshing my knowledge if had to do something that I hadn't done in a while. Then I found out that my brother in law who is a consultant surgeon uses it for evaluating his technique on procedures or boning up on new techniques.

    Like with a lot of things on the internet, finding the information is not the problem its being well enough qualified, and confident enough in your own knowledge to differentiate between good information and rubbish. Fortunately with DIY and making videos you have relatively little to lose by having a go, even if you fail you are building up knowledge that will be useful in the future if you want to try again.
