What is Jing?
The concept of Jing is the always-ready program that instantly captures and shares images and video... from your computer to anywhere. Try it, you'll like it. It's free.
- Snap a picture of your screen. Record video of onscreen action. Share instantly over the web or email.
- Elegant and simple, Jing's minimal feature set keeps the focus on instant sharing. We think it's the perfect companion to the casual, fast-paced online conversations we all have every day.
