This is a fantastic idea.

Did you go into the project planning to build the screencast, or was it a secondary effect of realizing that you were learning so much as you went along?

The idea kind of came along when I was extracting Gallery CSS from the project that I built it for — I realised that people probably wouldn't understand the library, or the need for it… but I didn't want the cool tech result to go unnoticed.

Originally it was going to be an ebook… if I'd have done that, it would've been released about 3 weeks ago, but the knowledge transfer is far more challenging VS a screencast.

Will you release any statistics about how many people downloaded Gallery CSS and how many bought the screencast?

As long as its not too embarrassing :-)

I'd recommend the screencast to anyone interested in frontend dev. Of high quality and very informative, taken at a good pace, well worth the $12.

Nice idea, and an O'Reilly disruptor if it catches on.
