Screencasts

Another tool you might find useful is screencasting, which enables you to easily record a video (and audio if you wish) of your screen to demonstrate a particular function – useful for sharing with other people.

I had hoped to stick to using web tools so was planning to use ScreenToaster but unfortunately the service is currently down, so I’m using Jing which is a free download and lets you take screenshot images or videos. Here’s a very quick and dirty screencast of how to create a Twtpoll which was a previous thing (if you haven’t voted in the poll yet, please do – it’s open until 12th Dec).

I found it really easy to create this using Jing – are there any other screencasting tools you would recommend?

Welcome

Welcome to Festive 24 Things, originally an advent calendar based on the same idea as the 23 Things programme.

Join Damyanti, Jo and Trudi in their festive quiz through useful (and hopefully fun!) online resources. Each day there will be a cryptic clue to the title of a Christmas carol (or song) and a tool which will also give you clues. At the end of the 24 days, we’ll ask you to submit your responses for each day and we’ll draw a winner
