Here's the screencast for this week's assignment. It's a basic walk-through of the Something About the Author Database, produced using Jing. Which, apparently, exports all screencasts it produces as Flash objects, which (1) makes them impossible to edit, or even to open using desktop software (since Flash as far as I can tell needs to run in a browser environment), (2) makes it impossible to add any kind of closed captioning, which makes me feel silly with the fuss I just raised over closed-captions in the previous blog entry, and (3) apparently makes it impossible (or at least difficult, I've found varying opinions on this point, and I haven't actually tried it yet) to upload to YouTube, which (a) allows for a wider audience, and (b) has the option to add optional subtitling.
Oh well. 'Tis done.
