Great new Mac app

Check out Skitch sometime - a great new screen capture and quasi file-sharing app for the Mac.



It's kind of hard to describe what's so great about it above other screen snap programs, but I'll try:

  • It's free
  • You can easily annotate and draw over your captures - the text and the arrow on the capture above took all of 5 seconds, no need to open an entire full-fledged imaging app such as Photoshop or Fireworks
  • You can keep a history of your screen grabs
  • You can drag right out of Skitch into any other app - take a screen shot, make some comments or draw some arrows, and drag it right into your email application
  • You can send your captures to the Skitch web server and generate a link, then give that link to others so they can view your stuff online
  • You can also send your captures to your own ftp site or to your .Mac account
