Hello Audience - who ever you are I love you and will soon send a survey to find out who you may be...

The old "Observations" blog has been moved to Archived Blogs on this site and now I am posting Observations here. So here is a new "Observations" post about a screenshot tool, Stich.com, that runs on Mac and archives things online.

This aggressive example of feedback is a pretty fair assessment of what I'm like 9 days into JMG's absense, but hell - I'm getting more done online now than I have ever before. It's all about perfecting systems...that automate Ideally. To give an idea: I have been juggling Facebook Fan Pages, several Twitter accounts, several Tumblr blogs, installing Pixelpost photoblog software to a new website, Tweetdeck on the iPhone, audio embedding widgets in websites and just now finding Stich.

Every question I have I just figure out the best keywords and type it into Google. (I appreciate the fact the Google Nanny no longer says 'of' is not an important word.)

Here's my Aggressive Feedback:

[Actually I copied it, then copied something else, so it's lost. And here's some feedback for Stich now: Where the Hell is my Feedback? Did you just soak it up? I will post it when they give it back!]

February 4: I never got my original feedback, but here's some more!

Why can't there be a save to folder settings on the skitch window. Additionally why can't users simply set up skitch to automatically save to a specified folder? For such a versatile program having to manually drag something or 'webpost' it from the window is ridiculous. Skitch needs to be out of the way of the action, not interfering with it's demands for you to make a decision about the screen shot every time a screen shot happens.

Simply put - with the shortcut to crosshair capture or any other capture, it seems that there should be a way for the capture to be auto saved, in whatever compression format the user chooses, to a folder of the users choosing - set in preferences - without there ever being a Stich window to look at. This seems obvious to me - Gadwin PrintScreen for PC is a free program that does it. A great program to that moment, Skitch becomes terribly inefficient if it's demanding you manage images on it's schedule.

PS. So a list of folders could also be on the skitch pop up window and act in the sameway as webpost or 'library save' - click a button and it automatically goes into the skitch library and wherever else you specify the image to go.

Same in the version I just thought up without the pop up window (have I mentioned how annoying it is that I must manage the Skitch window after every screen shot? It's a screenshot - I'm pretty certain I know what I got.). As it is auto saved to a folder it would be autosaved to the History Library too. Everything shot should be automatically saved.
