As a frequent traveler, I often have problems remembering and organizing travel details. Hotels look the same, airports start to blur together, and cab rides are crazy in any city. What dates am I traveling? How am I getting there? Where am I?!
I also need to share my travel itinerary with my fellow team members, friends and family. Sometimes when I travel, other people are booking my information. I have little bits and pieces of my travel plans all over - email, airline and hotel websites, and even scraps of paper.
This week's Screencast of the Week comes from one of my favorite sites, TripIt. I quickly fell in love with TripIt for organizing my travel in one place and giving me a single, master itinerary. I can invite fellow travelers to my trip so we can meet-up on the road. I can colloborate with our Tradeshow Manager and she can add travel information which she books for me in my itinerary. And, I can easily share my info with others. TripIt makes my life easier. And, then when I saw they were using Camtasia Studio, I was really hooked!
You can see several TripIt screencasts here. I like these screencasts from TripIt because they are short, concise and the audio sounds great! They even make great use of a large arrow so you can easily follow their cursor and they do a fab job zooming and panning.
Any nominations for next week's Screencast of the Week?

Great clips! How did they do the fading highlight boxes? They were used frequently throughout the presentations and I thought they were very effective!
