This is a screencast prepared by president Obama.

I thought it was an interesting approach, to convey information,

and a very effective one.

On this screencast President Obama, is announcing healthcare.gov.

a new website, that explains the new healthcare bill that was passed

few months ago, and talk to you about the current available options,

till the new bill take full effect in 2014.

According to president Obama, this website will make you understand

the bill, your rights and available options.

Here is an excerpt on what they sayon this post…

Making useful, easy-to-use information available online is a priority for this Administration.  And putting power back into the hands of Americans is a primary focus for the President.  HealthCare.gov accomplishes both.  So, take a moment and check it out.

In case you wanted to record your voice online, and you wanted to share the recording

with friends, colleagues, or family.

I found this tool called vocaroo, it is a flash based audio recorder, that allows

to record your voice.

The best part about it, is that it is:

• free
• no software needed
• you can email the audio recording
• or embed the recording on your website

It is a great tool, and I think worth checking out..

Let me know, what you think….or if you are aware of any other tools,

that does the same thing…

We all fond of screen recording or screen capturing.

They are a great tools, that you can use to communicate with your prospects,

prepare tutorials, or show what you have on your computer screen in an

easy professional video format.

I am a very visual person, so I learn much faster if you show me…

In the past, I used camtasia, and many other tools, to create demos to my clients,

or show them, certain features, or products, in case I am not able to do it in person.

Today, I stumbled upon a new tool, that I think it will revolutionize how we do

screen recording..

It is a new awesome service called screenr. You can check it out, on screenr.com

What I liked about it, it is complete integration with twitter, and best of all, it is free

and no software installation is required..

Here are a list of features that I read on their website:

Instant screencast for twitter.

Now you can create screencasts for your followers, as easily as

you tweet. You will have a ready to tweet screencast in seconds.

• It is a web based recorder, so no software installation required
• Works on PC or MAC
• Plays everywhere on the web, even plays on your iPhone
• Best of all it is completely FREE

I have tried and it works fairly well.

The only limitation that I saw is that you are limited to 5min.

But overall I think it is a great tool, and I highly recommend it.

A suggested feature for me, will be, is that I wish the user had an option,

whether to make the screencasts public or private.. Right now,

all screencasts are public, which could be an issue sometimes..

Let me know, what you think…??

Did you ever wonder what’s the performance of your website?

Did you ever wanted to compare your website to others???

Whichloadsfaster is a fun way to spread the word that web performance matters.

It’s about friendly competition and about testing in everybody’s browser,

not just ones that have nice performance tools already.

Whichloadsfaster is open source, written in HTML and JavaScript and runs entirely on the client-side.

You can host the files on your own site and tweak them to suit your own nefarious plans.

It is a one hour presentation, and it is very important, to anyone in the business

of creating software.

Key points:

• Which button to press?
• Software is all about the experience?
• It is a system
• Everything is a service
• Also everything is a product
• Don’t be logical
• Memory is more important than actuality, its all about how they feel about

As we all know, one the challenges, we have in web development,

and design is how different browsers renders the page.

In some situations IE doesn’t render the pages correctly,

or FireFox, Chrome show the pages in totally different looks.

Stylesheets, Javascript especially are rendered differently on

different browsers.

Below are some tools that you could use to simulate different browsers:

1) Adobe BrowserLAB

Straight to the point, I really like it, and I tried it myself.

2) Browser Shots

Straight to the point, I really like it, and I tried it myself.

3) Litmus

Requires sign up.

4) Spoon Browser Sandbox

It is a firefox pluging

I looked at so many tools, but the above seems to do the job,

and the best part they cost nothing

0to255 is a simple tool that helps web designers find lighter and darker colors based on any color. 0to255 cures your color manipulation woes. It’s fun, simple, and a huge time-saver.

Simply pick the color that you want to start with and 0to255 gives you a range of colors from black to white using an interval optimized for web design. Then, just click the variation you want to use and the hex code is automatically copied to your clipboard.

all in one page, check it out here…
