The tagline now reads "get good at life" and is a subtle change from the previous "Life explained. On film." But the videos remain some of the best we’ve seen.

Take for example the following video by Mark Comon, titled: "DSLR Vs Point-And-Shoot Digital Cameras." Mark explains the difference very well and very succintly.

Of course, besides digital photography, you can find almost everything else also well explained, all neatly arranged into ten channels ranging from Beauty & Style to Health & Wellbeing, Love & Dating to Money & Careers. What I really like is that you can also choose to view the accompanying text to the video.
