If you like to learn visually then videos are a great tool for your genealogical education. Luckily, with advances in technology, there are many free, professional videos available. I wrote previously about the tremendous videos available from the APG website. I will work my way through the other options available.
Legacy Family TreeOne of the newer video providers on the scene is Legacy Family Tree who are now providing free webinars. The webinars are first held live and then are available for viewing at your convenience on their website. Their first webinar was held September 2010.
Overview
I've watched the recorded webinar by Dear Myrtle and I thought it was very good. The sound, visuals and presentation were all very good quality and professionally done. Most of the videos are around 1 hour long. The longest one is two hours.The video didn't require any special software installation and I really like that.
