Testimonials
"I just wanted to let you know that I think your new technical videos are a
great addition to Safari! Last week, I needed to quickly come up to speed
on how to use Adobe Premiere Pro CS3. After watching Chad Perkin's
Essential Training videos, I was able to learn all that
I needed in one afternoon. Watching someone do something, and then having
them explain what they're doing as they go along, is a great way to learn...
and it's much easier and faster than reading a book. I see myself making
extensive use of your video collection in the near future. Great job!!!"

"This is the greatest website of all time...I love the site. On it like 3+ hours/day learning everything from video editing to that rails programming language. It's a geek paradise. The only downside is my newly discovered
insomnia."

"I just wanted to thank you for adding video to the Safari Library. The Safari Library has been a great help to me, both professionally and personally. Now that I have watched a few videos, I look forward to watching more excellent tutorials on subjects that I am interested in. Joining Safari Library has been a great decision and it is definitely worth the price. Keep up the great work."

"Just signed up to Safari today. I've been trying to get my company to sign up for it but they are being cheap, I so signed up for a personal account. I am blown away by it. The range of books is excellent. I've just moved in to Reporting Services and wanted to get as much information as I can about Reporting Services, SQL 2005, C# and JavaScript, and you've got everything I need. But the thing I love most so far is the ability to add bookmarks. You've made it so easy to dip in and out of books, marking stuff you want refer back to, it's going to revolutionise the way I learn."

"I cannot tell you how happy I am to see all the videos from lynda.com. I'm a freelance designer on a tight budget, and I consider Safari nearly as essential as coffee. But when I saw the videos on lynda.com, I was excited at such a great way to learn. I truly fell asleep at night wishing O'Reilly would do something similar.
And now I've awakened, it's Monday morning, and all my dreams have come true.
Thanks Safari."

"First, congrats with the excellent and ever improving Safari site. Being a Java web application developer working with a lot of different and changing technologies, during the years it has become my favourite knowledge base for checking out tech stuff."

"Thanks for the Library plan - exactly what I have been needing."

"First, let me applaud the introduction of Safari Library. Having to carefully consider whether to add a book to one's bookshelf robbed Safari of its greatest strength, which is the ability to access to a huge volume of content on an as-needed basis. Safari Library is an invaluable tool... Ditto the ability to cut-and-paste content, especially code. Finally, I'll mention that I've found Microsoft's newest ClearType fonts to be extremely useful for onscreen reading. Regards and thanks for a great resource."
