Do you know Cloudacademy.com / Codecademy.com / Teamtreehouse.com ? How would you compare with them?

I didn't know cloudacademy, cool.

We have livestreamed classes with industry pros. Among them, that I mentioned on the parent comment. There's a lot of real-time collaboration among students, like shared notes, questions and files.

But really, the live classes, those are our best feature.

CodeAcademy is a great way to build up some coding chops, but it doesn't give you the confidence that you'd get from hearing personal advice from the creator of a technology.

CodeAcademy is GarageBand, Platzi is MTV

hey I remember seeing you at noisebridge.net glad to see the company is doing well.

Awesome! I remember you too. Well, this is why we've been so busy.

Do you have to pay for any of the classes? TC talks about revenue but when I logged in, it seems everything is free. Am I missing something?

We started in Latinamerica and we do a subscription model. $29/month for access to everything. We have more complete courses, 2 weeks long, about design, marketing and programming. We're right now planning the first english course.

Which one would you like?

Any idea when the rethinkdb class will be available? I was tied up last weekend when it came out and would really like to check it out.

We had to resync the videos, but Monday afternoon, they'll be ready at https://courses.platzi.com/classes/rethinkdb-databases/

Why can't you both teach me useful skills and certify that I learned them? Make the certification optional, for an extra fee.
