When it comes to learning a new tool or platform, do you find written documentation to be the most helpful? Video? A mixture of both? What about those things makes them the most helpful for you?

I prefer quick videos, or at least content that has screenshots.

If I have to pick one, written because it's searchable and skimmable. But a mixture is ideal so you can get the best of both worlds

I personally like both, but even more so I like to actually get in the tool, poke around, and use it.

Very curious personally: What tools/platforms are you all trying to learn, want to learn, or currently have problems with? 

I'll be putting together an online course on Google Analytics for online businesses/entrepreneurs in the next month or so, but curious what else you guys could use help with?

Most people like video, I can’t stand it and its hard to learn from. Give me something written down any day and I’ll be able to go through it 3x as fast. 

I like to watch videos while taking notes. I really retain information better when I write it down. I prefer videos because they can better demonstrate how tools work. 

I prefer video especially if I'm trying to learn how to do something (like edit a photo in photoshop or add a certain effect to a web page) because I'm able to quickly consume the content. Especially on platforms that allow altering the video speed. With tutorials I often go through on 1.5-1.75x speed so that I can quickly learn what I need to learn and get back to implementing it.
