Acrobat 8: Take a YouTube tour of interface
Our user community colleague Chris Converse, the esteemed webmeister of AcrobatUsers.com, has been on the go lately as part of the traveling cast of Adobe’s Acrobat 8 roadshow. (They’re in Irvine today and then San Francisco on Nov. 30, with a final Dec. 4 event in New York.)
And speaking of online communities, arguably one of the hottest these days is YouTube.com–recently purchased by Google–self-described as a “community that is highly motivated to watch and share videos.” LOTS of them, on a wide range of topics and interests. Granted, a good deal of the viewable content is there not because of its technical quality or significant informational value, but rather because YouTube provides a virtual space where it’s easy for people of all skill levels to upload their original videos. (YouTube recently had to remove a slew of copyrighted video clips that were posted by users without permission.)
If you’re an Acrobat enthusiast who spends time on YouTube, you should check out the five-minute video tour of the Acrobat 8 interface that Chris posted there yesterday.
It’s considerably more useful than, say, “Cat gone MAD!!!“
