My company does in-person training to help non-technical people do technical things. We recorded one of our classes called "Basic Web Development". If any of your non-programmer friends wants "some help making a website", here's a place you can send him/her (link in comments).

The link provides free access to the course. Hopefully this saves you a little time as the go-to tech person in your social circles, and now you can read more on HN. It also helps me get feedback so I can improve our future courses, feedback which I appreciate very much!
