Tech Tip: Instant Screenshots!

Do you ever want to capture what's on your computer screen without having to go through that hassle of pressing print screen, pasting the image into an editing program, cropping out the crap you don't need, and then uploading it with an image hosting website in order to share it with someone online?  It takes quite a few steps and can consume quite a bit of time that you could be using to do something of much more importance.  I was always frustrated with taking screenshots of my computer until I found Gyazo.

Gyazo is a little program you download onto your computer that allows you to simply click an icon, drag over the area of your screen you want to capture, and have it instantly uploaded to your account with an accompanying link that you can share with others.  You can also instantly save that image to your computer as well. 

Look, I just did it and it took about 3 seconds.

Download it and give it a try! It's a game changer for sure.
