I swear you couldn’t edit this before. But now you can! Hooray! Must have been folded into the Winter ’07 Campaign updates.

Jing request post

Hey Jing, I’m loving every minute of your new version. Being able to do a screen movie, load it up to my webserver, and have the embed code with no effort has changed the way I work. I’m posting more quick screen captures because it takes literally no time. Look at my past posts and you’ll see a marked increase in visual elements captured with Jing since your FTP option went live.
When you first talked about how the project wanted to change the way people had conversations on the web, I wasn’t fully on board, but now I’m right there with you.
Here are a couple things I would love to see out of your amazing product:
- I would love to have multiple FTP sites configured and then I could choose which one to share to. I have a personal blog, but we’re likely to start using Jing for work content, and I’ll want to FTP that stuff to my work Plone site. Having multiple FTP profiles would be the bomb.
- It would be really cool to have an “advanced embed” function where I can parameterize a querystring with the embed info, and then Jing can pop that URL when I click the “advanced embed” button. Then, if I’m smart enough, the embed code could drop directly into my blog posting software editor. This option wouldn’t be hard for you guys, other than modifying the UI to have another button–you’ve already got the parameterizing working very well.
- Can I have longer movies now that I can host them anywhere?
- Update: I almost forgot! Keep the current level of functionality free! All hail disruption!
It’s a short list because, frankly, Jing is more than I ever hoped for in a free product. Killer. Also, can’t wait to see how this is going to fit into your Camtasia product line. At work we have a need for longer, edited screen movies, and if Camtasia can have any of the Jing mojo rub off on it, we’ll probably switch.
