Add Another Screencast.com Button to Jing

| | Comments (2)

By default, when you share to TechSmith's Screencast.com, Jing uploads your content to a private hidden folder named, creatively enough, Jing.

This is fine, but did you know you can have up to eight Jing buttons all of which could share to Screencast.com if you were so inclined?

But why would you even want ONE additional Screencast.com button? Here's four reasons why some Jingers use them.

  • Make a button for videos that you know you will use again. An example might be for frequently asked questions. When the question comes up again, don't re-make the video, just grab the link from Screencast.com. You could even make a playlist.
  • Make a button that returns embed code instead of the link.
  • Separate work content from play content.
  • Make a button that sends content to a password protected folder for clients, or a public folder a collaborative group can access.

Some readers might be thinking, "A way I'd utilize multiple Screencast.com buttons would be if they could point to different accounts." This seems like a good idea. If only Jing wasn't tied to that Screencast.com account so much...

I digress--want more Screencast.com buttons? Here's how to do it.
