SQLShare.com – Learn and Share

February 17th, 2012 No comments

I am a huge fan of SQLShare.com. The site publishes SQL server related videos. Easily go from ‘Zero to Hero’ with this site. Most videos range from 2-3 minutes. Topics range from advanced to beginners.   The.  It is easy to learn SSIS, SSAS, performance tuning, administration and other skills from top-tier presenters like  Brian Knight, Andy Warren, Jessica Moss, Grant Fritchey and Devin Knight.

The complete searchable list  of videos is here.  The ‘Watch It later’ playlist is great. I would suggest subscribing to the site’s RSS feed for the latest videos.  If you want to do more than watch, they have an open call for video authors. Submissions are reviewed prior to posting. If accepted, they will pay for the material.  WIN!
