I’ll second that!

Yep!
I got sick and tired (and still am) by ever and ever repeating myself (or my good talk mates here). So I decided to change my strategy. Writing posts take me often enough more than half an hour - and I wrote about 2000 of them the last 5 years.
So I decided to screencast stuff - starting with 5.5. My english is as is - quirky. But you see what you get - even if sound is switched off. My baby is Box-in-Box Model, and the techniques are off any version number.
There are two different screencast sections on my page:
Free and paid.
The free ones are playing two roles: Showing some essential things in order to understand the work we are living in and naturally what’s to expect if you subscribe. Those can be found on:

The paid is NOT an adaption of the manual. I made my thoughts trying to develop a special model as a bedrock. This is MY technique I’m sharing here.
This is the teaser of the paid series (which is and ever was for free) introducing the concept:

Near future plan:
I haven’t started casting version 7 yet, but will do. Recently I wrote a lil theme - the first one using FW7. It is worth to share the “How to - a look behind the scenes” - even share the file with the subscribers (who knows).
But Model V6 is the essential - the need to know first.

This is the reason why I said the (necessary) videos are already there - it’s simply up to you to judge if 20$ a year (8$ 3 months) is way too much, but consider how long you’re willed to work for 20$.
A word to community:
I even developed an agreement with Caleb - so every BackDraft client gets a voucher for one week free - just to have a look behind the scenes. No extra costs for him or his clients - just because of the honor to support committed Freeway users.
Ernie shares a rich and high valued “knowledge pool” called workbench.
Tim is sharing lots of free stuff (actions, examples, code)
Todd is building up a user-to-user knowledge base - collecting all the good stuff (a thing I thought about some time ago as well).
And without Walter we’d still live in the stone-age of FrontEnd development.
So there is enough stuff to do and support - but not only for the 10-12 people who already spent a good amount of their life-time helping others - it’s a good time to review the own strategy.
And Softpress?
The only thing I really expect is going on with the current work - doing progressive enhancement (or even enrichment), which will mean to create a product which is worth fighting for - and enough work to do. But this can also end up in a slightly changing audience - one which expects even more than the current.
