I’ll post about it here when it’s ready to go, but you’ll hear about it before then at a Tech Training Committee meeting.

SnagIt is a screen capture program, very powerful and easy to use.

And yes, there is some crazy-making in using so many tools, but I rarely have to spend more than a microsecond deciding which place to stash/track/post a document or update (although I doubt I could articulate that…)

Aside from that, part of the job (a pretty big part) is trying out the new tools and sussing out the potential for use in library situations. And getting myself up to speed on them before folks come to me asking for help using them themselves :)

Maybe if I change my name (because when someone says my name they always follow it with a problem or question!)

I am not familiar with SnagIt, but don’t you get crazy using to many different communication and information gathering aps?
