In issue#12 we speak with Lynda Weinman of Lynda.com.

Lynda shares her history of building Lynda.com and their training methodologies. We also cover the Online Training Library — why Alan considers this a Lynda-send. Lynda tells us about the FlashForward Conference and why everyone should attend. Tickets are still available for this year’s conference in Austin, TX.
