For the last year or more I have been wanting to join Lynda.com. I am one of those people that LOVE to learn but haven’t had the extra time to go sign up for a the college courses I would like to take. With that being said, I am always trying to find new ways to learn the things I want to learn online in my free time.
For those that have never heard of Lynda.com, it is a site that offers over 1,420 online courses and over 80,000 videos covering a HUGE variety of topics. This is perfect for those of you that want to learn at home online and learn only the topics that you choose whenever you want. With Lynda.com you are able to learn at your own pace (perfect for me) and a way to always keep up to date.
Since the kids are going back to school next week, I will be learning some things at home too while they are learning at school. Since I own a Nikon D5100 that I only know how to shoot in Auto mode, I thought I would smart to watch the videos available for my Nikon D5100 on the Lynda.com website.
Below is a screenshot of just Part 1 of 16 of the different videos you can watch to learn about this specific camera.
They also have a course like this one for the Nikon D7000 too! There are so many topics that I want to learn on this site that I am really excited to be a member. I have just begun my learning adventure with Lynda.com so please stay tuned for more details on this neat online training library I will be sharing.
You are going to LOVE this site if you are a computer geek like me!

I heard about Lynda.com from someone at BlogHer, but now I can’t remember who it was LOL!
That’s awesome! I could totally use some help with my SLR, lol!
I’m going to check Lynda out!! I love online learning courses at home!
Sounds interesting I wonder what else the site has. I’ve never heard of it but I’m always interested in learning new things to help me excel in life. Thanks for the tip
Sounds like a great learning tool. I kept seeing it everywhere and had to read more about it. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Sounds great! I have the same camera, but I bought the Nikon D5100 for Dummies book, lol. I might have to give this a try, too.
How cool is that!
How neat! I never knew a site like that existed. Looks like I may need to start learning soon!
I’m doing it too- although I am a Canon girl. I met a guy who was teaching about photos with iphones at blogher but I couldn’t stay for his whole presentation and I’m excited to learn about that too. and photo composition.
Neat! I would definitely need to learn CSS/HTML. I need to learn so I can do my blog myself!
I definitely love to learn, I’ll have to check it out, thanks.
Very cool, never heard of this before but I will definitely be checking it out. I have a Nikon D3000, wonder if there are any lessons about my camera. I’ll go check.
Thank you for sharing! I can’t wait to check this out. I would love to take a dslr class, and I have always wanted to learn photoshop.
I love lynda.com. They have a great class on Adobe Photoshop Elements.
I want to sign up, I’d love to learn how to use Photoshop!
I have never heard about lynda! I will be checking this out to learn more!
Never heard of this – thanks for sharing! 🙂 Love my DSLR so always willing to learn.
I signed up for Lynda and they do have some great courses, however the didn’t have a lot of information for one topic I really want to learn more about.
Sounds like a cool resource to me.
WOW sounds like a great opportunity to learn from home about things you’re passionate about!
Oh I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to take something like this regarding my camera. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Something more then reading a book but something that can really help me learn how to use it properly.
Looks very interesting and probably has some great info!
Sounds fabulous! I have the same camera, so thanks for letting me know!
