Blog Post on Jing Video

It did take me some prep time of course to the get the video ready to record. I was pleased with the end product and loved to have choices as to have it sent to someone by email, share the url, and embed into my blog. As you can see I need to make a modification somehow to decrease the size. If you have any advice on how do to that it would be welcome.

As far as how can this be used in my professional life. I have tried to demonstrate that by creating a video over a project that my students do in Multimedia. This is a great way to share with a class if I am gone for the day at a meeting. There are TWO problems that I have encountered with this program. One is that I am having problems loading to screencast. As I mentioned in the Forum for class it took me 2 hours to get it to load so I could share it. The other weakness that I see is that it limits you to 5 minutes. I am long winded and some of my projects are very detailed. Otherwise it was a GREAT experience and I will be using this tool in the future.

  1. I think you can purchase a version of Jing that allows longer projects and easier saving- but for free, this isn't bad!
