      <title>SkitchCasting was so 2008</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;After reading my post on how &lt;a href="http://www.robbyonrails.com/articles/2007/11/20/skitch-my-favorite-desktop-application-of-2007"&gt;we&amp;#8217;re using Skitch&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;a href="http://planetargon.com"&gt;Planet Argon&lt;/a&gt; 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.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="thumbnail"&gt;&lt;a href="http://myskitch.com/robbyrussell/ana_screencasts-20071217-194313/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://myskitch.com/robbyrussell/ana_screencasts-20071217-194313.jpg/preview.jpg" alt="ana screencasts" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a style="font-family: Lucida Grande, Trebuchet, sans-serif, Helvetica, Arial; font-size: 10px; color: #808080" href="http://plasq.com/skitch"&gt;Uploaded with Skitch!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;In her post, &lt;a href="http://ananelson.com/said/on/2007/12/17/screencasts-are-so-2005/"&gt;Screencasts are so 2005&lt;/a&gt;, Ana walks you through her process of finding a useful slideshow tool for her Skitch slideshow.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#8217;ll take this a step further and call this&amp;#8230; SkitchCasting! ;-)&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#8217;s really great to see that people are finding all sorts of uses for Skitch.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;For more information on Skitch, visit &lt;a href="http://plasq.com/skitch"&gt;http://plasq.com/skitch&lt;/a&gt; or read my post, &lt;a href="http://www.robbyonrails.com/articles/2007/11/20/skitch-my-favorite-desktop-application-of-2007"&gt;Skitch&amp;#8230; my favorite desktop application of 2007?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;For more examples on how our team is using Skitch&amp;#8230; here are a few recent blog posts by my colleagues where Skitch was used.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;/ul&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Btw, I still have a few invites left. ;-)&lt;/p&gt;
