Another and very important way to always be learning is to always be
teaching. Have some tools at hand that you can quickly use to show
someone else how your social media site or social networking system
works. It’s called screencasting and below there are three fun and fast
tools that are worth some attention. These tools are invaluable for
helping people visualize how things actually work, especially when
you’re going for funding.
www.JingProject.com
- works on PC and Mac. Simply amazing and completely worth paying for
the Pro version. I use it weekly and also assist my clients in its use. This
is a good tool to show employees and/or others how to use new features
in a system or how to explain/show a new idea to the inside group. One
example is demonstrating how to use a new tool to save time.
iShowU – Mac platform. Fast and easy. I haven’t used it but it looks promising.
ScreenCast
- My favorite, but this one has a ’slightly’ higher learning curve then
the other two. But that’s ok right? You’re open to learning. What I
remind myself –compared to what it would take to create this screencast
using tools like Final Cut Pro, Screencast.com is a snap. It produces
an extremely polished look and sound in the final results.
Ok, so have you looked into SXSW2009 to figure out what panels
you’re attending? I’m starting that process myself for Film and
Interactive. Think about it. Check it out. Help others learn how to be successful.
