I discovered and installed yesterday a really cool product by the Techhsmith awesome team: The Jing Project. The small and clever app is more than handy to create snapshots and comes linked to the screencast.com service.
Here’s an sample video I created (only to realise in the middle it was also mic recording ;)).

And here’s a screenshot of the nifty little sun it (the UI of the app in fact) it puts on your desktop.

Best of all, it comes in Mac & PC flavors and it’s completely free.

I guess that Plasq’s yet to be released Skitch has a serious, free contender.

UPDATE: Their video insertion mechanism for blog really needs to be enhanced since it either takes all of the available room on the page or doesn’t resize properly… So I unembedded the video and simply put a link to it.
