Having the ability to capture images from your computer screen can really come in handy. If you are a blogger, it's a good way to use images for your blog posts. If you are the average Jo-computer-user and have to get some technical support on occassion, there's no better way to "show" the tech person helping you then with an actual picture of what's happening on your computer screen. That's when software like SnagIt really comes in handy.

From a company press release:

TechSmith Corp., the world's leading provider of screen capture and recording solutions, today announced that it released SnagIt 8.2 which is "Certified For" windows vista. 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.

"Whether it's a product review, a blog post, a training document, or the first screenshot a user shares with a colleague to show Vista's new user interface, most likely it'll be taken by SnagIt," said Tony Dunckel, SnagIt Product Manager at TechSmith.
