Why isn’t this “Add ot Queue” on the full course page? I find a lot of new courses through your newsletter. The email links take me to the full page and then I have to go back one level, find it in the list, and add it. Seems like the Add button should also be on the course page.

I agree with Ann from Feb. 9 — would love to have a way to queue classes I’m interested in even though my account is not active right now. Would certainly re-activate and take the courses when I had several accumulated, but the thought of sitting down to go through the list of all your courses, trying to remember which one’s I’d seen that were interesting, simply for the purpose of re-activating again, is very daunting and therefore unlikely to happen anytime soon. It’s no different than keeping a grocery list, and would boost your sales to all of us who have been customers in the past and are your best prospects to quickly become your customers again, with little effort on your part.

Love your company and have recommended your courses to many other people.

Excellent addition to a great site! Just a thought, it would be great to have the course automatically removed from the queue when the course has been completed (100%)

And I agree with Michael.. it would be great to have a roadmap for a particular discipline. Say I wanted to learn all about digital video editing.. would be nice to have a list of all courses realted to the topic, arranged in order of suggested watching, from beginner to advanced to master, or whatever.

Love the new Queue feature. One thing I think that Lynda.com should really have is a more defined course structure. Lets say a person wants to become a Print Designer. That person will click that feature and Lynda, will map a out a whole course, and when thats done, an intermediate course is put together. I just wanted to menetion that because I am a frequent Lynda.com user, and I often get distracted and jump all over the place.

Ditto on the Folder request. I’m loving the Queue and Bookmark system, but it would be even better with folders. Also strange that clicking ‘in queue’ removes the item, I expected it to maybe take me to my queue. Nice new feature overall!

Excellent addition to an already great web site. I’ve now transferred my evernote list into the queue!

this is great…i already have a long list…it would be great to be able to “label” or create some sort of “folder” system to add more organization…already finding it very useful

This really is a great feature!
I always stumble upon courses I want to watch in the future, and now I will never forget any of them! Bookmarks are okay, but not nearly as intuitive and handy as this queue.
Thanks for adding this!

The queue is a terrific new feature, and Garrick explains it so well.

Thanks for reading my mind. I’ve been wishing for a queue. I would love it if I could keep a queue going even when my account isn’t active. That way I could queue up courses when I read about them in your newsletter. Then when I have several in my queue I would reactivate my subscription for a time.
