I have just created a short series of videos aimed at absolute social media beginners. The first 4 videos in the collection walk you slowly through creating a Google account, using Google reader to subscribe to rss feeds and share content with friends, set up iGoogle as an information and social media web portal and creating a Twitter account.
I will be adding more to this series as time permits.
They are very slow paced and probably far too basic for the reasonably tech-savvy, but do feel free to point any of your less knowledgeable friends and colleagues towards them if you think they might be of some use.

They can all be found on my YouTube Channel or on the sidebar here.

    Julia's nice easy introduction to social media with Google and twitter.

    I've just watched your introductory videos and I don't think they're too childish at all. In fact, I was not aware of some of the new social networking features of reader and I use that every day!

    Just one suggestion. You dive into social sharing before you've shown how feeds are added! A brand new G-reader user probably doesn't have any feeds apart from those that Google provides!

    Keep up the good work!

  • Ah thanks Chris...ii was a bit worried about their quality I must say as it is my first attempt. A very good point re adding feeds and that probably needs another short video to clarify.
