VIDEO TUTORIALS
So far more than 30 hours!
Here are the links of free
VB.Net Tutorials I found on the net. I'll update this post as I find more. They are in high enough quality (imagewise, content wise I loved them all, at least ones I watched so far).
Associate professor
Joe Hummel's webcasts are great.
About 30 hours...WoW! They are more like university lectures rather than simply showing how some things are done. You learn all the scientific basics of OOP, .Net framework and
VB.Net syntax plus other important concepts like SQL, ADO.Net, exception handling, Windows Forms...etc. Sponsored by Microsoft.
Franklin's .Net Tutorials...well I didn't watch them yet.
MSDN VBTV. Form Microsoft, introducing some celebrities.
Vb.Net Web Applications, Windows Applications and Data Access are main topics.
VB @ The Movies: Sponsored by Microsoft, created by
http://www.3leaf.com/ These ones are focused on specific tasks in
Vb.Net programming, they cover many important topics.

These were live streams spread to 15 weeks schedule during this year. Still webcast records are provided free to watch. Sessions take about 2 hours each.
Each session begins by Power Point presentation, then along the lecture code examples are executed in Visual Studio .Net. During the training tutor takes breaks and answer questions once were asked live.
Concepts are told scientificaly, they are no good for you if you want to quickly learn stuff and write code rightaway. 30 hours..is something.
They are Windows Media Streams. No downloadable. Simply enter some name when webcast page asks you one and your email address.

www.aspnedir.com
Requires Registeration: Yes
I was unsure about putting this in here as this site is a great source of tutorials it's in Turkish. Almost all of you won't understand a thing. Yet they make video tutorials as well and they update very often (not all video tutorials). I watched ASP.Net MySQL integration video and I liked it a lot. There are some others like XML Web Services...etc.
Anyways, those of you who happen to know (

) Turkish might check that out right away.
