Fueled by Diet Coke plus The Screencaster

Posted on Thursday March 13, 2008 by Betsy Weber

Beep. Beep. Beeeeeeeeeep! Ever had one of those nights were you swear your head just hit the pillow and then your alarm goes off? I just had a whole week of that! I was running day until night...and often back into day at the Microsoft Mix and SXSWi conferences. The only thing that kept me running was a lot of Diet Coke! Consequently, the blog did not get updated for a few days. My apologies.

You can see some pictures here from SXSW and here for Microsoft Mix. The TechSmith crew had a great time meeting up with people doing amazing things with SnagIt, Camtasia and Morae. More stories on that later...

I also got great news that Daniel Park has started a new newsletter about all things screencasting called, 'The Screencaster'! You can sign up for it here. It's a free monthly newsletter all about the art of Screencasting.

Daniel told me the newsletter will be filled with tips, tricks, news, and reviews. And, he'll be focusing not just on the technology, but also be giving lots of attention to higher-level marketing and training topics as they relate to screencasting, so Sales Directors or IT Coordinators who are left wondering how to implement screencasting in their own organizations will all find something to like.

And, I'm told the first issue goes out early next week, so sign up now so you don't miss it.

To celebrate, I thought I would give away a few copies of Daniel's latest book, Camtasia Studio 5: The Definitive Guide! The first 4 people to comment on this blog post answering the following statement will get a free copy of the book - 'Camtasia Studio is {insert your answer here}...'

"Camtasia Studio is the best....no, the greatest, for creating quality and professional screencasts".

Dany :

Camtasia Studio is, far and away, the best resource a technology teacher can have! And no one explains how to get the most out of Camtasia like Daniel Park.

Quote floater

Camtasia Studio is a Swiss Army Knife of screencasting tools.

Thanks for letting us know about the newsletter.

Camtasia is a tool for unleashing creativity.

David Dietzel :

Camtasia Studio is the easiest to learn and most powerful screen capture product on the market today.

Quote floater

Schucks... thanks, Dany!

Too late for the free book, but no worries because I already bought it. Just wanted to say Daniel's book is excellent and should be considered an essential purchase if you've bought Camtasia Studio 5.

Yea! Keep 'em coming, these are great! Thank you...

How about I send out 10 Camtasia prize packs with some fun goodies for anyone who answers after the first 4 book winners?
