We've just launched a new training portal where you can teach yourself Gaia. We've added up three videos that we hope you find worth your time. This will be your main location for finding screencasts, videos, etc covering interessting topics. We'll try and add more content on a weekly basis. You can watch the videos online using our Flash based player or download the video to your computer for offline viewing. If you are on a slow connection, it might be wise to download the videos first.
A curiosity is that the training portal itself was created with only 400 lines of C# thanks to Gaia Ajax 3.0 Glory release. This includes navigation, ajax search, rss feed and video player in modal window.
Here's the three first videos in addition to the ones we created for the Glory release.
The training portal is published at http://tv.gaiaware.net and you can click the tools menu to get the Rss Feed if you want to track progress yourself.
PS! Gaia is open source and we want to build a community where people can help eachother with Gaia development. We try hard to help you succeed with your application programming and if you want to contribute back you are most welcome to do so and the video training section is no exception. Please send us your contribtions in any of the channels we offer and we will publish the video in our TV station. You will of course be credited in our Hall Of Fame. It doesn't have to be about Gaia either, it can be about any programming topic you think will be of interesst to others.
Other ways to contribute includes the wiki and the forum.
