Niki,
This is a very neat idea. Mini screencast’s for tip’s. Like it.
Question: just out of interest, what was your process for capturing the video?
WHat I keep doing with the ‘x’ shortcut, like for years now, is when i have text highlighted, then go to ‘x’ it, obviously the text that is highlighted end’s up as an ‘x’. Hate that. Yet keep doing it. Doh.
I would like to give this idea a go. I have a post i keep putting off on Feedburner RSS tip, just one tip, but can’t be bothered frankly with all the screenshots. This would be a great way to go through this for like people who are new to RSS and FeedBurner example. What do you think?

Thanks for the tip. I use that one a lot. Did you have a quick key to increase the stroke? It looked like you did that pretty quick.

Also, hitting “D” will apply the default of white fill, black 1 point stroke to an object. Hopefully that wasn’t covered elsewhere…
