Jing...the Musical??

Posted on Friday May 30, 2008 by Mike Curtis

Betsy Weber over at the Visual Lounge Blog tipped me off about some new Jing-inspired lyrics. Some of you may know about My Favorite Jings music video the Jing team made for fun back in December.
Who’d of thought the Sound of Music would inspire more Jingified verses? Maria Andersen is an amazing educator with her own blog, and changed the words to How Do you Solve a Problem Like Maria?

What’s next? Well, I’m thinking Michael Jackson! Anyone out there want to try their skills at being the Weird Al for Jing?

Jing It
(You can hear the beginning of the song in case it's been a while since you broke out the Thriller album.)

They told him all his comments were very unclearmjImpersonatorWords.jpg
This wall of text I wish would disappear
Put an image in their eyes or it’ll be a long year
So Jing It, Just Jing It

Select a region, no need to preplan
Just wanna see the point, you can sound like Tarzan
Copy, save, Flickr, put wherever you can
So Jing it, or you’re makin’ me sad

Just Jing It, Jing It, Jing It, Jing It
No one wants to hear you speak it
Send me an image, mark it up right
Do it right now, I don’t have all night
Just Jing it, Jing it
Just Jing it, Jing it
Just Jing it, Jing it
Just Jing it, Jing it

Alex Cota :

I downloaded and tried it out. Want very much to like it because I can see it being very helpful to me. However, when recording video on my mac and one of the actions I wanted to record was me scrolling down on a website page, the resulting video I recorded was very choppy, much like making a cartoon with a flipbook. Very herky-jerky, not very smooth at all. As a result the arrow cursor would disappear and reappear, making following along with what I was trying to show very difficult. Is there anyway to fix this?

Cannot get MS.NET 3.0 to download and connect to set up Jing. I keep getting error. I tried manually too 3X. Any ideas?

Hi Dan,
This is a long shot, but juuuust to be sure, let's make sure you're trying to manually install .net 3.0 from this link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=10CC340B-F857-4A14-83F5-25634C3BF043&displaylang=en

Their site can be overwhelming and I know some folks have tried downloading non-applicable .net components.

If that doesn't work, have you tried a windows update? Another long shot. :) You might want to give TechSmith support a try too. They have experience working with things outside the realm of our products.
