Is there a short/medium term plan for training content for Netduino?
...
Thanks.
Mark
I do some videos on youtube. Nothing to great since I also started a little while ago, but if you are looking to get started quickly then those should help.
I can always take a request and try my best to make a video tutorial. Also if you stay tunned later today I will have a video tutorial about motors.
My Youtube Channel: VCSandARM
My website, it has all the code from the videos: OZ-Solutions
Hope that helps!

Thank you, both for the response and for taking the time to produce these videos. I will take a look and let you know if anything springs to mind. My most pressing request is probably something that isn't best addressed with a video. I would really like a "Netduino Newbie Guide to Ports" - what I get, which sort of applications they best address, how to use them, etc, etc. I guess that, in a way, this is platform independant - why I'd use a GPIO or a UART and PWM or ADC, etc, etc is something that probably applies just as much to Arduino, I'd guess. But getting these basics under my belt would be very helpful in understanding what I will (soon) have at my fingertips. I haven't found any specific content about this yet - just lots of people talking about them from a position of awareness of what these things are :-)I do some videos on youtube.

Chris,That's a great idea (on the introductory guide), Mark.
We'll post more tutorial videos soon as well (on Analog Inputs and on some debug features next).
Chris
I understand that the video's take a while to design/record/post but in the meanwhile is there any thoughts about an intial page/document/FAQ that gets newbies to the point where they can do something useful, without falling over at an initial hurdle? I am not talking anything fancy - just a place to document "stuff" that might catch folks out. By way of example, this thread has some interesting comments about pin numbers that - I suspect - would have taken me a while to work out (yet, presumably, are important to anyone looking to read digital inputs): http://forums.netdui...blinking-leds/.
Obviously these forums are great. But a lot of the aggregated knowledge is spread across all sorts of threads (I just stumbled across the one above).
Anyway, interested to know if something might be in the works (a FAQ, split into sections, seems like the best approach).
Thanks.
Mark

I am thinking of buying a .com domain for netduino tutorials and call it ... netduinotutorials.com ? (should it be .org ?)
I want to document every project/tutorial with Fritzing diagrams (Fritzing.org) (Thanks to Stefan for this link), Visual Studio C# solutions, and a lot of explanation ... about many things.
I would also like to include a coding style (make many things static since we are in a very small footprint (does that make sense for an explanation ?)
I would like to invite many (like omar) to donate their project to this tutorial effort. I would like it to be open source with editing to enforce coding style (would that be too much to ask ?)
This project will take time since I want every project to be defined into Fritzing (read defining the parts graphics and specs).
Anyone interesting about that ?

Thought that project was still a little secret?Great idea. Let me see if I can rush the Sandbox (http://sandbox.netduino.com). I know that we've scheduled to launch it a little later this fall but maybe we can get it up earlier and get this posted there...
You've got a PM about the website, but this is also something that could happen on the sandbox when it's done. Small tutorials could fit in a wiki environment I suppose.I am thinking of buying a .com domain for netduino tutorials and call it ... netduinotutorials.com ? (should it be .org ?)
