I reviewed videos 7 and 10 and find them to be far better in quality than 90% of what’s out there… except that the audio had a considerable number of hiccups. Maybe it was an overloaded server/router/network… but I doubt it. If the hiccups are in the soundtracks, you shoule rerecord them as soon as possible.
Overall, Yaro, this is a very nice resource. Thanks!
Hi John
Thanks for your friendly and kind comments. I really appreciate it.
I’ve just watched the whole video and checked the sound and it seems to come out fine on my end.
What kind of hiccups did you encounter in particular?
Talks soon!

Some typos:
In video 3 (or 4): it’s does not need the apostrophe.
In video 7: ads should be adds.
Hi Laura

Why is does it seem impossible to find my wordpress.ORG API key…
I’ve been stuck on this one for 2 weeks and I have no idea why such an awesome tutorial would leave such crucial infromation out of the presentation….
I’ve looked everywhere for this answer! What the hell?

Hi there Deane
Thank you for your message! And sorry to hear that you are having some problems with Akismet and the API thing. I know what you feel like and it can get very frustrating at times.
I have good news for you!
I’ve found an instructional video that will solve the problem for you. Here it is:
http://www.tubetorial.com/stop-spam-with-akismet/
Simply follow the link, and then watch the video. It explains step-by-step how to get your own API key and then how to set it up in your blog.
Please let me know if you need any further help.
Kind regards

PS: Strictly speaking, you don’t actually need to have the Akismet plugin installed before you can launch your blog. All it means if you don’t have it installed, is that you will get some comment spam, which is not the end of the world. But of course, having the Akismet plugin installed and activated is recommended!
Thank you for this video, very interesting, I was wondering what are plugins for
now I am knowledgeable now 
thanks yaro
