Marking a video as a favorite?

This is a more general question, but is there a way to mark a video as a favorite? I'd like to be able to set aside the videos that I like from different tracks and watch them as reference in that que, instead of tracking them down individually.

Thanks

Completely agree with you, Joseph! I was wondering the exact same thing. This is one of those videos you would like to come back to often, and it's already happened to me with others.

Hope Team Treehouse can read this and hopefully take it into account, since it would be really nice.

Another one that I'd also like it would be if you could mark a course to "watch it/course it/go through it later." Like instead of interrupting one course and jumping into another recommended in one of the videos, you could mark it, continue your course and then still have this one in your menu, ready to be started.

From my point of view, these features are not really urgent or necessary, but it would definitely be nicer.

Hi Joseph,

If I were you I would create a folder in your bookmarks/favorites named 'favorite videos' or however you would like to organize them.

Then book mark or save each of the videos as you encounter them.

You could even create sub folders for specific subjects i.e., javascript videos, html videos, etc.

What I do is right click and save as, for both video and transcript. Plus I use OneNote to take screenshots of portions that I like. This helps me stay organized and is a great way to review without being online.

Favoriting the video on Treehouse somehow would be nice for those of us that just like to stream.

Really good video btw.

I use Evernote to keep everything organized. I download the video, take screenshots, save transcript and add notes easily!

If you create a Bookmark or favorite you'll need to have internet connection always, with Evernote you can access offline.

Hope this helps.
