Online photography class

This is kinda off the topic but I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction for a good online photography class?

POTN is really good. After that I would check out Vimeo and You tube. Then find some blogs that interest you.

the internet, this website, a book, and lots of time behind the camera is all you need.

Any good books you would recommend?

My best recommendation is to find a college in your area that has a real photography program. For the money you will get as much information as you can possibly handle (at least here in S.F. bay area). If there are no colleges close by there are likely photographers in the area that teach. Books work but remember that photography is a pretty deep subject and that no one book really covers the entire range of subject matter. It also takes practice and real field experience to start to get inside the sport.

What part are you interested in, if there is a specific like Landscapes etc, check out books in your local library, if it's general get a how too book and learn from the ground-up. Time behind the camera is kind in my opinion....

I am interested in all kinds of photography, macros of my flowers and insects in my gardens, wildlife and landscapes. I love sunsets but can't seem to capture what I see. I think I'll look into a how too book for DSLR cameras. My T1i manual gives some good information but it's really boring. I would love to find a book that would actually give lessons on different techniques and how to use manual settings. Thanks so much for your reply.
