Lynda.com is one of the best resources I’ve found online. Fullstop. I can’t stress how good this resource is. Lynda.com was started in the late 90′s by Lynda herself in an attempt to teach her students more about web design. Since then it has hugely taken off and now covers not only web design, but nearly all facets of software use and development. Predominantly you will find thousands of videos on the Adobe Creative Suite, but this also stretches to things like Business, Home Computing and even Audio Engineering.

Not only is Lynda.com full of teaching and step-by-step tutorial videos, but it has nearly 50 documentaries! These are mostly on creatives, or professional industry based studios from print to web, branding to interactive. Documentaries also cover past great typographers, illustrators, photographers and the rock stars of the design world.

Lynda.com does have a subscription based service—but it is totally worth it for the amount of content on there. You can view a limited number of videos without an account to test it out but I highly recommend investing the small $25USD monthly fee to take full advantage of this site. I only wish I had known of this whilst I was studying, it would have been the best resource I could have had—who needs lecturers when you have access to lessons from the actual Adobe software developers!
