If you’re a screencaster, especially if you’re a screencaster who uses Camtasia Studio, then you should check out ‘The Visual Lounge‘ blog over the next 12 days for tips from different screencasters. Betsy Weber will be sharing tips from expert screencasters each day…and it just so happens that the first day is a tip from yours truly! I’m so thrilled to be in the category of “expert screencaster”! Just to be clear, I have no affiliation with Techsmith – I’m just a big fan.
If you’d like to see other screencasts I’ve been working on then check out Butterscotch.com where I’ve been busy creating tutorials every month. And of course, check out our portfolio to see what we’ve been doing here at DemoGirl.
I can hardly believe that it’s already October. I meant to get this post up last week so that it would technically be posted in September but, well, we’ve been really busy!
As you may have noticed, our blog posts have dropped off considerably in the past month. Probably the biggest reason for this is that I went through a HUGE life-changing event. In case you didn’t hear me posting about it over and over again on Twitter: I GOT MARRIED!! Yes, I finally did it and I’m thrilled to be the wife of such a huge Web celebrity So there ya have it – feel free to keep calling me Molly McDonald but I’ll also respond to Molly Sargent. Some of our friends have decided that we should just be “The McSargent’s” which I think is peachy.
Since DemoGirl is almost exclusively run by family, we were all extremely busy planning, traveling and drinking much more than usual. My wonderful partner on DemoGirl, Mo, was my Matron of Honor and she did a kick-ass job running the show. My brother Tom, also known as “The Boss” was generous enough to let us all take 5 days off to travel to Mammoth Lakes, where the wedding took place. Of course, we still had work to do for our clients. Lots of it.
It seems that our $99 quickcast special has become quite popular and we’re still creating lots of completely custom screencasts too. Here are few of our more recent projects that we’ve been given permission to share with you. Please take a look and check out their services (you can tell them DemoGirl sent you) and let us know what you think!

Also, if you’re looking for tutorials to share with your not-so-web-savvy friends and family members, check out my work on Butterscotch.com. I make how-to screencasts there every month giving you tips and tricks on how to do everything from protecting your privacy on Facebook to how to navigate the brand new Twitter interface. They have a lot of great shows for people with every level of technical expertise.
