My very limited and one person experience with online video tutorial sites. Don&#x27;t read too much in to it, just my experience.<p>- Lydia: Probably the best in terms of depth and options. But I only tried couple of them.<p>- TutsPlus: Second best in my opinion. But again, limited experience with only one author.<p>- Khan Academy: Love the UI, love the gamification, love the concept. But its more for entry level education (for now) and less of high-level, in depth learning. If they can apply the gamification to higher level learning (or just have more higher level content) it would be awesome.<p>- Treehouse: I have very very limited experience (just the php video series), I felt that it was a bit goofy. Like their target audience is someone who is not computer savvy or 12 year old.<p>I feel video is probably not the best medium for learning programming related contents. I think video can definitely supplement a text heavy learning, but otherwise I think textbooks are better way to learn programming (maybe its just me).<p>I would love to know experience from other HN-er&#x27;s or any other online video tutorial sites they might have tried.

I&#x27;m usually a massive fan of what you guys do, but man, I&#x27;ve got to say that you need to use this tool on the pricing page, in particular:<p><a href="http://leaverou.github.io/contrast-ratio/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;leaverou.github.io&#x2F;contrast-ratio&#x2F;</a>

Like the redesign! Is it Bootstrap based?<p>Some feedback: the button hover states could be a bit more intense and some transitions would be nice (e.g. the navigation flyout on smartphones). The navigation button is also missing a cursor: pointer attribute.

The new site looks great guys! I have had our dev staff using treehouse for over a year now, and for the devs that get into it, I can see their excitement after each new technology they start to pick up.<p>Treehouse is AWESOME!
