ScreenCasting: The Jing Project and UltraScreen Recorder
Sunday, July 22nd, 2007
I recently came across the Jing Project. It is being setup by Techsmith (the folks that bring you Camtasia Suite for screen capping and creating wicked training vids).
The tool is cross platform (Windows and Mac – doesn’t look like linux is in the works) and allows you to create video and annotated screen captures and either save them (swf for video and png for pictures) locally for manual embedding in websites, attachments to emails, etc… or you can share them via a short URL to screencast.com (a user ID is required to store items).
