TechSmith Brings Free Virtual Sticky Notes and Skype Accessories to SnagIt

New Organization and Communication Accessories Enhance SnagIt’s Screen Capture Benefits for Millions of Everyday Computer Users

Okemos, MI – March 29, 2007 - TechSmith Corp., the world’s leading provider of screen capture and recording solutions, today announced the release of its SnagIt Notes and Skype Output accessories. SnagIt enables computer users to take screenshots of exactly what they see on their screens to communicate ideas faster, explain concepts clearly, and archive electronic information with point-and-click convenience.

With SnagIt Notes, customers can take screenshots, add graphic elements and text, and save them to their desktop as a virtual sticky note. With SnagIt’s Skype Output, customers can share screen captures over chat sessions with a single click, adding visual reference or clarification to any conversation.

“In today’s multi-tasking, information-intensive world, these two accessories will help any knowledge worker get more organized and save precious minutes throughout the day,” said Tony Dunckel, SnagIt product manager at TechSmith. “We hope our customers find the Notes and Skype accessories to be a nice complement to the powerhouse feature set SnagIt is known for. These are the second group of free and fun accessories that we’ll be rolling out this year.”

Using SnagIt Notes, customers can:

• Create visual reminders by saving screen captures as a virtual sticky note on their desktop and add text at any time.
• Save screenshots to the clipboard or to the SnagIt editor to do more with the image later.
• Avoid desktop clutter by organizing multiple notes from the tray icon, including opening, closing, hiding, and rolling up notes.

Using the SnagIt Skype Output customers can:

• Quickly communicate ideas effectively with screenshots instead of wasting time typing and speaking lengthy explanations.
• end unlimited screen captures to the same person over chat without having to save and attach them all to an email.

SnagIt is the world’s most popular screen capture software with more than 7 million users worldwide. With SnagIt, users can capture, edit and share any image, including scrolling windows, objects, menus, video, text, and Web pages and include them in emails and instant messages, PowerPoint presentations, MS Office documents, marketing and sales materials, technical documentation, class handouts, websites and blogs.
