well, gosh, I’ve learned half the other stuff from Beth and that crowd, so I should probably take off the intimidation hat and give it a go. Thanks for the nudge to the neophyte, here!

Hi Amy,
I have only been screencasting for a couple of weeks, and I learned by reading Beth’s wiki and using the online demos on the Techsmith Camtasia website. It wouldn’t have taken me even that long if I had known there was a bug in the software (fixed a couple of days ago).

I like to learn hands on also, but you might be surprised at how easy this can be. You can even try if for 30 days for free and see

This is just awesome, I’m linking to it in our Shaping Youth blogpost on Beth’s work right NOW as so many social media gurus need to see this demo! Fabulous! gosh…I need to get someone to show me this stuff firsthand…Any screencaster specialists based in the S.F. Bay area? (I’m a demo-driven gal, in ‘learn by doing’ mode) Thanks for this Christine…pleasure to virtually meet you!

Beth,
Glad you liked it. Your wonderful screencast resources are part of what made it possible. I’d say I am a beginner screencaster, having been doing it for two weeks or so. Yes it is Camtasia, and this is my first one where I don’t sound like a chipmunk due to the update released a couple of days ago. I’ll send the embed code by email.

Hope you have a fantastic birthday!
