We are really exited to announce the release of TimZon’s screen capture capability
To take a screenshot of your screen using TimZon, simply click on this icon in the recorder toolbar:
TimZon screen capture function enables you to more effectively communicate visually.
It can be used to easily demonstrate a problem, a new design or more generally to show others anything from your computer screen and talk about it rather than writing a long and complex email description.
Please feel free to try it and let us know what you think about it. We are looking forward for your feedback.

Greetings, TimZon Friends.
We are happy to let you know that we’ve released a brand new version of TimZon.
The features included in this version are:
Full screen recorder:
You can now use a lot more space to visually describe ideas and problems you are working on.
Use the image upload to import a screenshot or picture in TimZon.
You can draw on the TimZon whiteboard or on top of an image using the Pencil tool.
The laser pointer lets you show what you are talking about while describing it in video.
You can also highlight specific areas of the sketchpad.
To add a comment, you can use the synchronized comment and they will appear at the same point in time when your contacts are reviewing your video.
Set your webcam video size:
Depending on the nature of message you are conveying through TimZon you may or may not want the message to be video-centric.
Use the 
large camera button, when emotions are important and you want your contact to clearly see you in video.

small camera setting when your message is centered around the whiteboard area or images you uploaded to TimZon, or when you just don’t feel like being in front of a camera.

New and improved player:
Now that the recorder maximizes the space available to you for sharing visual information, we had to make major changes to the player for the information to be displayed in the same position and proportions you intended it to be.
This new player also solves the problem some of you were experiencing when viewing videos in a smaller screen.
Nested Discussions view:
Like in real life, discussions with TimZon are not limited to a single subject. By using the “More” button under a video preview, you can create a child discussion, inviting only the video author or everybody in the current discussion.
In the discussion list view, nested discussions are shown under their respective parent discussion, making them easier to follow the natural flow of a discussion.
And many more user interface enhancements…
We listen to your suggestions and are making many continued changes to TimZon user interface to make it a more enjoyable solution.
If you have any direct feedback on this version, please feel free to contact us by going to http://feedback.timzon.com
We look forward to hearing your feedback!
The TimZon team.
We recently had the pleasure of being interviewed by Bas de Baar for his Project Shrink Blog.

Project Shrink Video PodCast about TimZon
In this long overdue post, I would like to tell you more about what the TimZon team is up to (it also explains why you haven’t heard much from us lately).
For the last few weeks, we work closely with you TimZon users and also new potential users to gather more information about what you would like TimZon to do better for you.
Based on this feedback, we are hard at work developing the latest and best version of TimZon.
Here are some of the highlights of what to expect in this upcoming release:
- We realize that you may not always want to be in front of a camera and will now offer the ability to minimize the camera. Down the road, we will also be able to only record your voice if you only wish to do so.
- In the current version, the drawing area for the whiteboard is pretty small, and not that useful. The whiteboard will almost cover the entire screen, giving you enough space to describe the most complex ideas visually. In addition, Images upload and later screen capture will let you show and comment; This will be ideal to provide feedback on user interface or graphic designs.
We are really exited about those changes and more I didn’t describe here, but still need few more days to fully test this release to provide you with a solution of quality.
We would really like to hear back from you and learn about other changes you would like to see, to make TimZon a better solution for you. Feel free to contact us by email, by replying to this post or any other way.
Thank you,
The TimZon team.
