  Video Demo of IE7 BETA3
Continuing in the vein of offering cool tech tips, I'm always looking at, and experimenting with new technologies to share with everyone.

The latest toy I've downloaded and tried out is called Cam Studio. This product allows you to make a video screen capture. It's great for creating a demo or tutorial of how to use a program, or do something with your PC, and it will record audio from the microphone at the same time.

I've used the software to create a quick (3 minute) demo of Internet Explorer 7 BETA 3. I've then uploaded it to Google Video and embedded here... Now this is my first shot at this, and you'll find there are 2 main problems that I need to correct:

1) The Audio is a little low, but you can turn up your speakers to compensate
2) The resolution gets shot via the upload to Google Video, so it's quite blurry, the next CamStudio video I make will be at a much lower resolution, I think 400x300 should still end up fairly viewable.

I think a lot. Some people say I think too much... However, I don't want to be seen as being aloof or pretentious, it's just that I really enjoy philosophical questions and deep thoughts. That's not to say that I don't find pleasure in more down-to-earth or trivial things, like beer and soccer :) I'm happily married with 3 wonderful children. I'm a partner in a technology services company based in Toronto. Myers Briggs says I'm an ENTJ
