Web 2.0 chains – the screendumpr

I often stumble upon things on the interent, that I’d like to comment. More often than not, my comments are on poor usability, clumsy design or other web annoyances. These are often easiest to document and comment via screendumps, but the process of taking a screendump, cropping it, saving it, uploading it and putting it in the blog often hampers the immidiacy of a good blog post.
Adressing that problem I combined 1) Gadwin PrintScreen (that lets you screendump specific areas of your screen), with my flickr account and the 2) Flickr Uploadr – a tool that lets you drag and drop images for uploading. Finally, to get the image to appear in your blog (in my case WordPress), there are several plugins that allows you to easily insert your flickr images in blog posts (in my case WordPress Flickr Post Bar).

The trick is to tell Gadwin to open screendumped images with the Flickr Uploadr – see below example:
gadwin-setup

Enjoy :-)
