Best YouTube Videos

Is there a list "out there" of the best Splunk videos on youtube?

If not, anyone have a great link for beginning searches?

The Lisa Guinn video is great but maybe one that's a little longer?

A Texas educated user will be viewing the video so hopefully the speaker will talk real slow.

Thanks!

Thanks for the compliment! There are a number of videos on YouTube, but it might be easiest to find the videos from the Splunk website. They are organized there into categories, etc.

This will have a lot of the same content, but I don't know if all the Splunk video is also on YouTube. Also, none of us are actors, so we try to keep the videos short - the informal videos are great, but they get really really boring when they are long. So in addition to watching the short videos, you might also want to download the book, Exploring Splunk, by David Carasso. It is freely downloadable from the Splunk web site at

or you can pay for a hardcopy if you like by going to Amazon or other book sellers.

Finally, I have to throw in a pitch for the paid training. Here is the link to Splunk Education. They have both web-based training and live online events. I thought that some of the web-based training was free, but I could't see it when I was searching...

Thanks! I'm downloading the book now and I'll check out the other links.
