Reading is way quicker than watching a video. Speech is just too slow.
If an informational video doesn’t have a transcript or a way of speeding it up I’m not interested. At work we have a subscription to Lynda.com and while the content is okay, the only way the videos are bearable is to watch them at 2x speed.
- Tsubasachan 8y agoYeah people in videos talk slow. They also do the whole introduction thing. Videos are good for ads. And videos are interesting I guess if you actually CARE about the guy who talks in it. For information and learning: text.
- mattkevan 8y agoAgreed, there’s generally a lot of filler and intros for about 30 seconds to a minute of genuinely useful information. I guess it’s the same as most pop businesses books: there’s about a blog post’s worth of material, padded out with case studies, anecdotes and other fluff to reach the page count.
