Description
Its something we want to give you, along with some online media hosting, to see how you use it. The project will eventually turn into something else. What is the Jing Project? Is Jing a product? Not exactly. Is Jing a beta? Well, its not exactly that either. Jing is a concept that is being evaluated to see if it can improve everyday conversations. Determining if Jing will be a product is what we are trying to do by gathering feedback from people like you. We think its a great way to improve daily conversations via email, IM chats and blog posts. How do I use it? If youre wondering, How in the world am I ever going to use this thing called Jing? then heres an explanation from Tony Dunckel, the Jing Product (err, Project) Manager: Think of Jing as a supplement to all your chat discussions, email threads, forum posts and blog entries. It sits nicely on your desktop, ready to capture and share your stuff at a moments notice. Simply select an area of your screen, capture it as an photo or record it as a video, and then click Share. Jing conveniently places a URL to your content on your clipboard ready for you to paste the URL into any of your conversations. “Your content is hosted on Screencast, for which we are providing a complimentary account to all participants during this project. Users have 200MB of space for storing screenshots and screencasts and 1 GB of bandwidth that renews monthly. The Screencast account will remain available to you for the duration of the project. Here are some other things to keep in mind about photos and Jing: - While editing, you can undo using Ctrl+Z on the PC and Command+Z on the Mac. To redo, use Ctrl+Y on the PC and Shift+Command+Z on the Mac. - What you select is exactly what viewers see. photos are saved in the lossless PNG format and are not resized.
