Welcome to PVT

PVT is a free, online e-learning library for computer programming. Here you can quickly learn how to use many popular programming languages through both text and video tutorials.

Siforia’s second crowdfunding campaign – the Handbook of Web Business: Audiobook Edition – is now live. The goal of this campaign is to finance an audio version of the Handbook of Web Business, by preselling this and many other products on the campaign page. Audiobooks are kind of expensive to produce, so the campaign needs to raise at least $2k for this product to be financed. Here’s a rendering of the CD version of the audiobook:

I’m grateful for every bit of support in getting the word out about this campaign. If this campaign exceeds its goal I will use every bit of surplus to fund more PVT videos.

Cheers,
Mike

For the past few weeks we’ve been working on a crowdfunding project to finance an audiobook version of one of the Siforia books, the Handbook of Success: Audio Edition This project has now been launched on Indiegogo. If this project succeeds we will use it as a stepping stone towards funding other exciting Siforia audio and video products, including remakes of all PVT videos and many new videos.

You can contribute to this project by purchasing rewards on the project page. These rewards feature many exclusive items and the retail items can be had here for a reduced price. If you cannot pledge money, please consider helping the project in other ways, such as sharing the campaign on Facebook or tweeting about it on Twitter. Here’s the promotion video for the project:

Siforia now has a Merchandise Store for all your merchandising needs. It features the logo for WEJ as a symbol for the passive income lifestyle. So that people working towards a similar goal can look at that palm tree as they’re sipping their coffee or getting dressed in the morning, and feel the motivation flow into them. They may not be lying down below a palm tree on a warm sandy beach, but it’s pretty darn close.

Siforia’s sixth book – The Handbook of PHP Syntax – is now available in print. This book features 30 information dense chapters, of which 14 are brand new chapters that are not available on PVT. Ebooks in the Kindle and ePub formats have also been released. Oh, and if you do like this book please leave a review.

For the past few months I’ve been busily working on a new site project – The PUA School. With that site nearly finished, I’ve decided to revisit a few of the tutorials here on PVT and improve upon them further. The first tutorial to receive an overhaul is the PHP one. Work is underway to produce a book on it and once that book is released the tutorial will receive the same updates. The release is currently a few months off.

By popular demand, PVT’s programming books are now available in the Epub format, in addition to the Kindle and print editions. The new editions can be purchased from Siforia’s Smashwords store.
