Resource Of The Week: Jing- Free Screen-Casting Program

Today's resource of the week is Jing, a free screen-casting program brought to you by TechSmith, the creator of Camtasia. Hat-tip to Jane Friedman for her post on Jing.



Jing is a free screencast program that allows you to take a screenshot of your computer or a 5 minute video screenshot and post it online for free. You can also save the video for use later. While the basic program is free, you can get the pro version for added convenience like recording from your webcam and saving in a high def format, and publishing directly to YouTube.



Jing is created by Techsmith, the same people who make Camtasia and Snagit, so they have a lot of experience with image and video creation. There are a few free screen-capture tools out there, but based on Jane's review and from what I know about TechSmith (I use Camtasia), Jing is an exciting free tool that I wanted to share with you today.
