How does MindBites work?
Built on the philosophy that everyone has something valuable to share, MindBites is a place where anyone can design, create and post instructional content for sale.
We offer real people, individuals like you, a self-publishing platform to share their knowledge, skills and passions through audio and video lessons. These lessons will be available in our marketplace, where others can purchase and download them using credits costing as low as $1.69, and also can be promoted and previewed across the web.
The result is an inspiring community of discovery that hopes to revolutionize the way the world shares knowledge.

What exactly is a MindBite?
MindBites are long-tail user-generated digital media instructional content from our self-publishing platform and available for purchase in our social marketplace. Say wha?
It’s simple. MindBites are focused, practical and interesting lessons produced by real people for real people. You see, we’ve reached an exciting time when anyone with a basic camera, computer and access to the internet can share their knowledge more easily than ever before in the history of the world (please speak in your best James Earl Jones voice). No longer must we learn through unimaginative, generalized content that has been diluted by countless publishing filters.
Now, anyone can teach anything to anybody. Pretty amazing, huh?

Why on earth would I not want to do this?
