“Kyran observed that learning-by-watching was a very powerful technique and one that the Internet hadn't exploited (back in 2005). Ian and Kyran teamed up to create a site where knowledgeable people could share their knowledge via video and things have kept on growing since then.”

ShowMeDo promotes community. It lets people submit their own screencasts and has the masses decide what’s good and what’s not, like Digg or YouTube.

Will ShowMeDo’s Digg-like model make the quality of the screencasts suffer? Are the tutorials comprehensive and easy to understand? How will it stand up to competition?
