Use JingProject for free video screen capture
Jan.04, 2009 in
Marketing
Techsmith, the guys who develop Camtasia, have a great free service called JingProject. It lets you do quick screen captures, both still and video, and it hosts them for free.
This makes it very easy to do a quick video and easily share it. The free account gives you 2 gig of storage and bandwidth, enough for a lot of videos and views.
The downside is you can’t edit. But it’s a great way to quickly demonstrate something. I don’t use JingProject for marketing purposes because I have Camtasia and my own hosting, but I use it to explain things to my support people, partners and developers. For anyone just starting out, it’s an excellent service.
