Video tutorials for Linux and shell beginners

I created some videos for linux beginners but also to give a very short overview about certain topics:

[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoyqj2DFcXcaD-QrYPZRqTpLZ8\_rkyOKU](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoyqj2DFcXcaD-QrYPZRqTpLZ8_rkyOKU)

I would like to get some feedback about the videos here and also some ideas what would be worth a video.
