Screen Capture application in Plone?

Dear all

I am the project manager of the Community Network Analysis project. Until recently, the project was funded by Economic & Social research Council funding. As part of the community network investigation we formed a partnership with a local community in Brighton & Hove. We wanted to look at how communication technologies can assist community development processes and building and sustaining forms of social capital. In the final stages of this project we set up a prototype community communication space (CCS), where community groups and individuals could post a wide range of content formats that they generated, e.g images, video, audio, textual narrative etc.

We selected to work with Plone but have experienced a number of problems, most of which were probably down to our own technical ingnorance and inexperience. We went to the Seattle conference and saw a vision of how Plone is developing and decided we made the right decision in choosing Plone but needed to build our technical expertise, if this was going to be of sustained use to the community.

Eventually, just as this stage of the project was ending, we met some people in Brighton with Plone knowledge. It was they who put us on to this list. We are hoping we can work with them to improve the CCS but are willing to meet and engage with anyone who's interested.

OK that was by way of a brief introduction. Now for a question, does anyone know of a screen capture application that we can use in Plone? Once we get the prototype CCS working properly again, and have migrated all the content to the new version, we wanted to develop a set on tutorials for people in the community to use.

Many thanks in anticipation.

Peter

Screen Capture application in Plone?
Peter-
 
There is no screen capture application that works inside of Plone, but I'm not sure why such a tool would be needed.  There are lots of great general purpose screen recording tools that you can use to develop "how to use Plone" type tutorials. 
 
There's a pretty comprehensive list of such tools at:
 
We used ViewletCam to do a series of Plone tutorials at http://www.learnplone.org, which are available under a CreativeCommons license (hint hint).
 
 
best,
jon
