Shiver Me Timbers! Talk Like a Pirate Screencast!

Posted on Friday September 18, 2009 by Betsy Weber

What are a pirate's favorite kind of socks?

Arrrrrrgyle!

Yo ho ho! Listen up, matey! 'Talk like a Pirate' Day is coming up on Saturday, September. 19. What are you going to do to celebrate?

Over the years, we've had some fun at TechSmith celebrating Pirates and this holiday. On the left of this blog post is a pic of Kate Sumbler from our Tech Support team dressed up as a Software Pirate a few years ago for Halloween. :-) As the holiday apporaches, you'll hear many bad Pirate jokes shared throughout the office.

And, at TechSmith, we believe that Pirates need their own Snagit training. Arrrrr, how else are they going to learn?

When Chris McQueen, from our Training department, isn't swashbucklin' and sailing the high seas, he's making Screencasts. He made an Intro to Snagit training video with Camtasia Studio just for Snagit Pirates! Check out the screencast below. It runs 2:10 minutes.

Arrrrrrrr! Not a Pirate? No need to walk the plank! You can see the original Intro to Snagit screencast here. Pirates need screencasts too!

What are you going to do to celebrate Talk Like a Pirate day?
