Give me a scenario with any software you care to name that allows making a screencast to be a casual decision, or that allows you, within minutes of its completion, to show it to a friend or colleague via a simple link in an email message or IM. Hello... TechSmith already makes the premier professional screencasting tool. Why would you expect this -- a tool for conversational screencasting amongst ordinary mortals -- to try to be another Camtasia? All the usual difficulties -- frame rates, codecs, finding a host to share your video, and managing the upload-and-embed process -- are made virtually transparent by the close link between Jing and Screencast.com.

I regularly want to show someone a screenshot (screencast even better) on the fly, using IM. Sending images via IM is often blocked by firewalls; I know of no IM that handles screencast video. Jing solves this elegantly. There are plenty of screen capture utilities; this is a *casual screen sharing* utility and as such it has earned a place in my toolbar. Oh, and about that Flash thing. I've been looking for years for a Mac app that would record Flash screencasts. Jing does! The use of Flash is a big plus to me.

Duncan - that's ridiculous. The screen capture utility built into OSX is wonderful. Just hit Apple-Shift-4. It's a majorly cool feature. Vista has something similar, but XP just sucks in this area. “If you are a Mac user, the screen capture tool alone makes it worthy of consideration.”
