Looks like the product will be moving to Shareware with a 30 day free trial, an older version is still available. SnagIt allows you to capture screens clicks and images from the web. I use it all the time especially if I am trying to replicate screen behavior and I need the person to see exactly what I am doing.

I personally use Jing Project i actually use it quite a lot. Its Free and its located in the bottom of your screen so it's handy, you can use it for both video as well as normal screen captures. In addition Mac users can enjoy "screenshot plus"

I agree that there are many other great tools out there, but with the additional edit functions Snagit has there is really no competitor if you want to edit your images afterwards and have one-click functionality.

A problem with online tools is that you most of the time store the images online and don't have immediate access to them. What happens if the company dissapear one day.

ilanbrill@yahoo.com - please note that if you are the owner/user of these other computers you can use Snagit there too.

kuproverto, you should check out klikdeal instead of using tinyurl. Then you can measure how many clicks you have and you can choose the name of your link too: http://www.klikdeal.com

Best,
Peter

If you use Ubuntu 8.04, the ability to grab screenshots is built right into the OS. Applications | Accessories | Take Screenshot

My wife uses Clip Clip, which she says is very similar and she really likes the features. Plus it's free.
