Happy 3rd Birthday Jing!
Update: The contest is now closed and the drawing went to Ankur Jain. Thanks to everyone for their support. We'll do more fun stuff like this again.
It's a blog post extravaganza! To celebrate Jing's third year, we've got a whopper of a blog post with a contest and an exclusive behind-the-scenes video.
First, the contest...
You can see Jing's wish list below. Sure, there's never enough sunscreen, and the dashing suit would make splendid formal wear. Webcams are always cool for Jing Pro--but our favorite thing is more people using Jing. Maybe you can help?

If you're reading this, you know Jing is pretty swell. So in honor of Jing's third birthday, we hope you'll help more people discover Jing and explain why they should check it out. If you want a little incentive, use Jing to take a screenshot of your message (email, Facebook post, tweet, WoW chat, whatever) and post the link in the body of the comments below.
We'll randomly draw a winner for a bundle of Camtasia Studio (or Camtasia for Mac) and Snagit for every 30 people that show us how they've spread the word over the next few days. We'll close this Tuesday July 27th at 5 pm Eastern Time (GMT -5:00).
Jing might not be as fancy or sophisticated as its big brothers Camtasia and Snagit, but when you need more power you can always count on them.
Summary:
- Tell someone about Jing
- Do it by next Tuesday
- Capture a screenshot of your message
- Send it to Screencast.com and post the link in the body of the comments below
- Get lucky and maybe win some other TechSmith software
Now, some behind the scenes action!
While coincidental, TechSmith remodeled some buildings and the Jing team has relocated to a new workspace. We consider our new area a nod toward Jing's birthday and it's an appreciated upgrade for us!
I pulled out my Flip and filmed the team in their new habitat. There's nothing developers like more than seeing me armed with a camera for some spontaneous filming. The video is under 2 minutes.
Thanks for all your support over the years! We look forward to this coming year!

I tweeted all my followers the best thing I could think of to encourage them to use Jing.

Now, if only I had a free upgrade to Snagit 10, I could tell them with more power and authority. ;-)

but I also introduced Jing to bunch of education grad students last week and will introduce it to a bunch of school principals next week.
They are blown away.
I can't say enough good things about Jing. It's been a game changer for me!

Benjamin,
I am not sure what's going on, but I got your email and opened a case for you with our Technical Support so I expect you will hear something soon. In the meantime, if you want to email me a Jing as an attachment I'll still get you entered into this contest. m.curtis@techsmith.com

Loving Jing. It gives me an "in" with all new IT Help Desk staff. I stop in to introduce myself and them tell them about Jing. I get faster IT assistance since they love using Jing!

During a staff meeting the other day, I was even accused of working for Techsmith since I talk about Jing so much :-)
I must have told 20 people already! I would have posted all of them! Jing, you rock my world! http://screencast.com/t/MmQ0ZDdjMzU

I'm writing a Best Practices article for the Ask Dr. C area of Blackboard.
I had hoped to be able to take a Jing of the published page...but I'm running out of time on the CONTEST! (You got a pix of my Word article... but the real deal should be up tomorrow.)
LOVE
