Tutorial Site of the Week on Pixel2Life
Pixel2life, one of the biggest tutorial sites on the Web is featuring Tutorials 2.0 as its "Tutorial Site of the Week Winner". The folks at Pixel2life are amazing people (I contacted them once) and they were kind enough to let us share our tutorials on their site. To all the tutorials writers out there, that is the first place to go to when it comes to getting attention for your Website. It was no coincidence that as soon as I launched Tutorials 2.0, I had placed them on top of the list of sites to...

Tutorials 2.0 Community Grows Again

Tutorials 2.0 Community Grows Again
We've been dugged, again, this time with Renyn's latest tutorial: Jelly Remake. It received a lot of attention in the front pages on digg and del.icio.us. While many thought it was cool, some had questions on specific steps. Not to worry, your questions have reached the author. That's the advantage of having a community like Tutorials 2.0 - while we're learning new ideas from the tutorials here, future entries can benefit from your feedback. Oh, allow me to introduce myself: I'm Meng To, I've been establishing and maintaining various communities since 2000. Here's a little...

Being digged to the top 10

Being digged to the top 10
I spent the morning with a friend (Adam from Google) optimizing the Tutorials 2.0 site as we faced tremendous traffic, having made it to the top 10 stories on digg.com. We've had more traffic this morning than in the past week, that alone says a lot. Thanks to him, we got the site functioning like it should, again. (On the side we were also watching Steve Jobs run his show about the new Apple iPhone :D.) It's been an unbelievable day so far, I'd also like to say thanks to Jason from empiredezign.com who's...

Launching Tutorials2.0!

Launching Tutorials2.0!
It was an idea I wanted to start quite a while ago: combining tutorials (art) and 2.0 philosophy where it belongs to the users to tell what's good from what's bad. When you think about it, blogs and tutorials -- which have been around for quite a while -- are almost the same in term of content and how to get the point across. With Tutorials 2.0, users would be able to navigate easily, link easily and most importantly share & post easily their favorite tutorials to their favorite Web spaces. You win at participating...
