If you like Joomla video's, I am very excited that a DVD version of my book is now available, A User's Guide: Building a Successful Joomla! Powered Website (2nd Edition) and Fundamentals of Joomla Video!

The second edition of the book is an update of the best selling book on Joomla, bringing it up to date with the latest version of 1.5. It also has a completely new chapter on marketing your site and SEO, two topics that change continuously.

The Joomla Video Training is a completely new release. Its a packed 9 hour training video on 1.5. You can listen as I explain some of the most difficult concepts, like sections and categories and creating your site navigation.

If you'd like to get some insight into the background behind these new releases, you can head over to cmswire and Dee-Ann LeBlanc's interview about them.

Reviews

• Beanstalk's SEO News Blog - Joomla! 1.5: A User's Guide - in review
  "What surprised me was that this book was a very elegant and easy read that I found to be straight forward enough for the average user. But at the same time it covers all the right points to serve as a quick introduction  for a techie."
• ThinkBigShot - Fundamentals of Joomla! (video)
  "The videos take you through Joomla at a slow pace. This is not a bad thing. In fact, I would say that it is a good thing since everyone learns at a different pace. These training Joomla videos are packed with over 9.5 hours of information."
• Netshine
  "This is more than just another Joomla book - it is a comprehensive multi-media training course, and as far as I am aware, the first of its kind."
• CMS Report - Reviewing Barrie North's Joomla! 1.5 book and video
  "Luckily for all of us, North's Joomla 1.5 book and Fundamentals of Joomla! video are well worth the purchase. I can't help but give two thumbs up to both North's updated Joomla! 1.5 book and new video."
