We're on a MediaRoll!

Posted on Tuesday July 8, 2008

See that thing over there on the right? It's called a MediaRoll, and it contains Anton's instructional Jing videos, all in one place! MediaRolls can contain images too--and you don't have to have a fancy blog to take advantage of providing viewers with selected content in one convenient place.

How did I make it? I'll show you. (2:48) You can do it with Jing and your Screencast.com account!

Please take note that if you're offering your MediaRoll to the public at large and lots of people are downloading videos, you could max out your allotted (1 GB per month) Screencast.com bandwidth. Learn more at the Screencast.com Help Center, or watch a video about bandwidth issues .

Comment on Jing Content

Posted on Tuesday October 21, 2008

Screencast.com recently added the option for you to allow viewers to comment on your content. The best part is that you can be notified via email when people post.

Learn more here.

Here's a tip: I name Jing content I care about with a real file name instead of using the default time stamp. This makes it easier to find it in my Screencast.com Jing folder. In fact, I often start my file name with an underscore so it's at the top of my list in the Jing folder on Screencast.com.

Learn more about managing your content on Screencast.com. And as always, you can visit http://www.screencast.com/answers for more information about Screencast.com.

Oh, and in case you've not heard, Jing is free, the Screencast.com account is free and we're here to stay.

How To Comment on Jing Content!

Posted on Wednesday October 22, 2008

Updated 10/28/08: Screencast.com just made it so you don't have to move your content out of the Jing folder to allow commenting. That said, learning to manage your Jing content on Screencast.com can be a very valuable skill--especially for those of you who have a ton of content and reuse it.

Mike got a little over-excited yesterday when he revealed how to allow commenting on content created with Jing. He forgot to mention one really important step: You have to move the content out of the Jing folder in order for viewers to comment. We hope to remove that necessity in the future.
Until then...it gave me a great excuse to make a video showing you how to do it (and to make fun of Mike).
So here you go... How to Allow Comenting on Jing Content:
