Bad news for fans of Yellow Circle

[Lee McWhorter]

I have been using Yellow Circle as a completely free (and no CC required) alternative to the 'free' Cloud accounts through the major vendors. Unfortunately it seems they have recently changed things so that even the lowest account has a $1 cost now... While admittedly quite reasonable for what they do, it takes away a free educational resource for teaching / demoing Cloud which I'm sad to see go. Also, even these prices might not last based on the 'limited time only' wording.

Oh, I'm very sad to see this!

Perhaps a good thing to add to CIN would be a list of resources that would be useful for cert prep? Anyway, yeah, a bummer that it's not free, but, it's pretty low cost, methinks...

But, how about this as an alternative? Simple Google search yields..
