SkitchCasting was so 2008 8
After reading my post on how we’re using Skitch at Planet Argon for adding some life to bug submissions and feedback, Ana Nelson came up with an ingenious idea for taking a collection of Skitch images and creating a slideshow an alternative to screencasts.
In her post, Screencasts are so 2005, Ana walks you through her process of finding a useful slideshow tool for her Skitch slideshow.
I’ll take this a step further and call this… SkitchCasting! ;-)
It’s really great to see that people are finding all sorts of uses for Skitch.
For more information on Skitch, visit http://plasq.com/skitch or read my post, Skitch… my favorite desktop application of 2007?
For more examples on how our team is using Skitch… here are a few recent blog posts by my colleagues where Skitch was used.
- The Sign In Metaphor, by Allison Beckwith
- Google vs Yahoo, by Andy Delcambre
- Google Street View for Portland, Oregon on the Planet Argon Blog
Btw, I still have a few invites left. ;-)

I have skitch envy in a bad way. I have seen post after post from you talkin’ up skitch like you have stock :) How ‘bout hooking me up with an invite. Thanks. Nicholas
@Nicholas,
Just sent you an invite. Enjoy!
Would love to try it out too.
BTW, have you see Jing? I use it and it’s great for both annotated screenshots and quick screencasts. It sounds very similar to Skitch, although the graphics for annotating the screenshots aren’t as pretty…
Ah, just saw your previous post where you mentioned Jing. You should check it out again, as they’ve improved the workflow immensely (after uploading ashot to their service Screencast.com, the embed code gets automatically copied into your paste buffer).
If you have another invite handy, I’d like to give it a try…
I would be most grateful for an invite as well. Thx
If you need an invite, please me at robby at planetargon dot com.
I have been searching for an invite as well….
E-mail if you have one rum2runner+skitch@gmail.com
Thanks in advance….
