There's lots of ways to learn things. Some people like visual, some like hands-on. Some like to read. How would you explain how Jing works to someone? We talk about fast visual communication, but what does that really mean?

What would be a different way to try and explain Jing? Do you think this video get the idea across? Would you be willing to send it on and help explain to others how Jing works?

In this 27-second video, some of Captain Jing's colleagues give him some ideas for what he might be for Halloween.

Do you still need a last-minute Halloween costume? You can dress up as Jing!

Here's what you need to do:

1. Put on a yellow turtleneck.
2. Some yellow face paint doesn't hurt.
3. Blow up three yellow balloons--not too big.
4. Get a marker and as best you can, draw the three Jing icons...like this:

5. Affix the balloons to a headband.
6. Put on the headband!

P.S. anyone who actually does this and sends us a picture gets a free "Jing: Show and Tell for Grown-Ups" T-Shirt.

This video (0:49) is our special way of letting you know we're still working hard to make Jing better, listening to your feedback, and we hope you'll stay tuned. Faster Jing, faster!!

On Jing we try to employ Agile development practices. Every day at exactly 11 am, the Jing team gets together for our Scrum near our Gantt chart which lists all the stuff we're supposed to be doing over the course of the approximate 30 day cycle.

We quickly go around the room and say what we did in the last 24 hours and what we promise to accomplish in the next 24 hours. Sometimes what you say you're going to do doesn't come to fruition and you feel shame.

In this video, Bill, Dennis, & Captain Jing give their reports.

The following was inspired by true events that occurred on the morning of August 2, 2009. On this day a member of our beloved IT department returned Alan's laptop, newly reformatted, but minus his Jing sticker. We could have laid low, perhaps even just gotten a new sticker and stayed quiet. But sometimes, you have to stand up on principle--and that's where Captain Jing comes in.
