Hands-on Labs - A great resource for developer learning

Recently, I blogged about the “How Do I” set of videos that we have for different technologies to provide task based information that will help our customers.

Another way we have found that developers like to evaluate and learn is through guided tutorials that are less than 90 minutes in length. We call these tutorials Hands-On-Labs or Virtual Labs, and MSDN has a complete list of the available labs here.

No installation is required to run the labs, and with over 250 labs grouped by technology, it is easy to find, get started and learn.
