Hey thanks for that! Cool tip! (and also love the fact that its free)

But sounds ridiculous to me. TechSmith also has Camtasia Studio which is a paid software that does the same job.

Camtasia is much more powerful. Jing limits to 5 minute clips and you can't edit the resulting video.

i'm using jing by techmsmith too. in addition to allowing you to create and save screencasts, -it hosts shared images and videos, providing unique urls -you can write write on screengrabs

its a freemium, but i have yet to need the -mium.
