Jing (by TechSmith) is a free service that allows you to instantly share images and video from your desktop. Once installed, Jing sits unobtrusively on the top of your screen waiting to capture an image of your desktop. Hover your mouse over the logo, and with one click you can activate the screen capture utility.
After you select the screen area you wish to capture, you can save it to the clipboard, e-mail it, store it as a local file, or store it online at Screencast.com. Screencast.com is TechSmith’s media hosting solution that Jing uses to securely host your content. It’s perfect for the kind of images and videos you’ll want to make with Jing.
