Learn Anywhere with the New MindBites iPhone Site
Posted by Jason · June 3rd, 2008
We’re pleased to announce the release of the iPhone/iPod version of the MindBites site, complete with on-demand remote access to all the lessons in the MindBites library. Now you can access innovative video instructional materials wherever and whenever you need them, including titles like Roadside Bike Flat Repair, Last Minute Toast Tips, or Emergency Beer Opening Techniques. iPhone/iPod users can check out this first of it’s kind instructional site simply by visiting mindbites.com on their device.
Here’s a quick demo of the MindBites iPhone site we recorded:
The iPhone version of the MindBites site highlights special Mobile Picks, offers easy site navigation, and enables the viewing of any videos available on the MindBites site, including those previously purchased.
To celebrate the release of this iPhone site, as well as the one year anniversary of the iPhone, MindBites is making a special set of “Mobile Pick” lessons available for free viewing, including:
- Picking Better Produce
- Austin Video Guide
- How to Fillet a Fish
- Emergency Beer Opening
- Tying a Tie - 3 Knots
- Travel Japanese: Essential Phrases
- Last Minute Toast Tips
- Roadside Bike Flat Repair
Our mission has always been to help you learn what you need directly from those who know. Since we are often out-and-about when the urge or need to learn something arises, the ability to access instructional materials wherever and whenever you need them is key. Now by leveraging the iPhone/iPod mobile web platform, we are able to give authors the ability to publish lessons through the MindBites platform and make them available anywhere at any time.
To celebrate the one-year anniversary of the iPhone as well as the rumored launch of the new 3G iPhone, all of this week, we’ll be posting about our experiences with the iPhone, building our iPhone site, and why we think the iPhone web experience is revolutionary.
Note: iPhone and iPod are registered trademarks of Apple, Inc. And we’re pretty sure Steve Jobs now owns the rights to any words that begin with the letter “i”.

[...] MindBites, a website offering dozens of instructional videos, has launched an iPhone specific website. One thing to note though is that this website is paid. There is 1minute preview for each clip, but to view it fully one has to pay$2. Unfortunately there is no membership and you have to pay for each video you see. To view the website visit http://www.mindbites.com/ with your iPhone. [...]
