Esther Choi is back and she’s feeling “Snippy”

Esther is back with a brand new demo focusing on another cool feature in Windows Vista - Snipping Tool.  Snipping Tool is really handy for anyone who needs to capture and/or send an image of their screen, a web page or document - really any time where the visual explains more than a description. 

We've heard great things about the other videos we did (on Previous Versions, Live Icons and Instant Search), so our plan is to continue providing content like this.  Leave a comment and let us know what you think of the video, and if you have suggestions for tips and tricks we should cover in future videos!

Also, just a reminder that you can still get the Windows Vista Product Guide - a great resource on all things Windows Vista - for FREE in paperback.  All you have to do is pay for shipping.  Order your copy here!  The paperback guide doesn't include the new stuff in Windows Vista SP1, but you can download all of that information here

    I think having such short videos explaining Vista features, is a real good idea.

    Vista's explorer is so feature rich, would be great if Esther could make one explaining its lesser used, BUT useful features.

    I love the snipping tool! Wonderful tool if you're a blog writer.

    I hope Esther makes more videos - She really does a good job of making it all sound so simple.

    @sciamannikoo: That's always the Microsoft Web gotcha - you see the interwebs are only for US readers. Honestly, the way MS supports its foreign user base, you'd think Sarah Palin was running the place.

    Here's your Vista ad campaign right here.  Forget that Mojave crap.  Shorten these up and run them on tv.  Unlike the Apple ads, you'll actually be showing people cool things about your os.

    ya tru the "I'm a PC" ads are better than the ones b4, but i still think they shud show some ads that actually show some features, especially the ones that ppl dont know about, cuz Vista has a lot of applications/features that they don't advertise about
