I have been planning to use this blog to tell you about my some of my favorite computer / utility programs. I figured I would start by telling you about SnagIt 8 as I will probably use its features in a lot of future posts.

SnagIt 8 is a tool to take screenshots (pictures of your computer screen) and then edit and enhance them with callouts, arrows, borders and captions. SnagIt 8 is a product of TechSmith and is available at http://www.techsmith.com/screen-capture.asp for ~$30

The image above demonstrates a border, caption, callout and spotlight.
