The ultimate resource for "how to" for computers

I originally saw this in PCWorld:  a web site where children can send their parents tutorials on using a computer, especially the Windows operating systems and Google.  There's a little bit of humor- children are supposed to be computer literate, while their parents are, well, not. 

The children help their parents by checking off topics related to questions their parents have asked or haven't asked because they don't know enough to ask the question.  After checking boxes for tutorials, they send the link to their parents.  The parents receive a personalized list of tutorials covering what their children think their parents need to know.  Neat!  BUT you can use the site and watch the tutorials yourself; you don't need to have your children send you the list. 

So here's a tutorial on the tutorial site:  http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xh6c79_tekzilla-daily-teach-your-parents-how-to-use-the-computer_tech.  It is really good.
