This is cool :: Skitch

iTunes
Uploaded with plasq’s Skitch!

I like Skitch - its a fab wee app that I discovered from the top 100 Mac apps that I posted about previously. It is a screen capture tool on steroids… designed for online collaboration.

I took the above snap when my iPod was updating and added a couple of things to try to demonstrate Skitch’s usefulness:

  1. I highlighted my iPod’s stats… and was able to add what the stats translate to - number of songs etc.
  2. I was also able to blacken out my serial number.

I did all this in minutes… and then posted it to Skitch’s webspace.

I then had a number of sharing options (see above):

  1. URL for this page
  2. Direct URL
  3. Embed
  4. Full Size
  5. Forum

I have used the “embed” option so far… and am working my way through the others. What is a nice option is that the picture can be “public”, “secret” (as in you need the URL to get to the page) or “private”. Again, I need to explore these options.

One last feature that I think is cool is that, because I logged my twitter account on sign on, I can post this pic on twitter.

I live Skitch and would recommend it. It is a freeware app for Mac OSX.
