My first YouTube video! Extracting pages from PDFs.

It has been a while now since I have written anything over here. At work, I am pretty much writing non-stop. Although sometimes it does feel like I might be writing too much and my emails are getting a tad too long. 🤷‍♂️

Anyways, this week I released my first YouTube video. I have been wanting to get into the whole YouTube thing for a while now. One of the main reasons why I got into it is a tweet by an Apple tech expert that I follow.

He basically mentioned that you should try and share whatever knowledge you have, however small it may be, because there is always someone who will benefit from it. He wrote that by sharing your knowledge you are enriching others lives. I believe all of that.

So I recorded, edited and posted my first YouTube video “Splitting PDF using Microsoft Power Automate Desktop” earlier this week. The whole experience was enlightening, to say the least.

Of course it was not all easy going. I had issues through the entire production. But all those troubles actually helped me understand the different components a little bit better. I think for my next video I will have it easier. 🤞

Oh by the way, to create the below YouTube channel icon, it took me around 4 hours! That’s a globe with the land created out of 1s and 0s. Yes, I think I may have done too much for something that is going to appear very very small on YouTube. But I feel good… ✌️

So, here’s the video. I know I have to tighten things up for future videos. But as a first attempt I think its pretty good. 🕺
