I am trying to make a tutorial video for a friend on basic functions of internet use. I am not able to be there and show them so it being a video is about the only way I can actually show them. This person is completely new to windows and email and just about everything about web surfing there is to know. So I'm starting from the ground up. What I was wondering is do any of you know any good tutorials? Or pdf sources, flash, video, or maybe even something I might try finding via a torrent. Just something that may help them to come to terms with a computer in general. Last week opening the box was there first time actually using a computer. I don't really have any fancy editing programs but I can make pie charts... lol I love that commercial... anyways.. I'm using a combination of Nero 7, Standalone Video Recorder, dual monitors (cloned) an internal DVD burner and an internal DVD-Rom as well as various other programs.... so I can make it pretty comprehensive with what I do have... but the problem is I'm not real sure what all to include... d@m%.... any help in this matter would be appreciated.

Thanks... I think Im gonna do alot of screen shots (put them in a pdf and maybe create presentation w/ them since I don't know flash) The problem I'm having w/ the video is I cant get the resolution quite right... in other words it unreadable on the DVD..

Thanks I like that last link... thats perfect! exactly what I needed

Macromedia Captivate is by far the best I have found. This is one I did not to long ago:

This is a video tutorial for Dreamweaver to Xbox
