It occurs very frequently that we need to explain to PC newbies how to use or set a program or how to fix a little problem when we are talking online. Some times we can explain to each other and solve the problem simply by communicating in forums or by MSN. However, more often than not, though we work very hard to explain to them, still they are at a loss. This is especially true when we are dealing with some complicated problems. What is more annoying is that you have to explain the same question to a lot of different people again and again. Then some people find it very useful to explain with illustration for some complicated tutorials such as programming, hacker or software configuration, it is more vivid and easy for people to follow.
Illustration is good. However, it usually takes a lot of pages, neither easy for people to read it over and nor for people to distribute. Speaking of illustration, why not go further and simply video the illustration step by step and distribute as one video file on the internet so that your tutorial will be even more vivid and useful to those newbies.
In fact, many video tutorials have already been flooding on the Internet. Some times it may appear as a flash, or an avi file. This makes it easy for people to download them and learn.
