I’ve got five very different things to tell you about today, but they’re all “announcements,” so they’re all going in the same post. Some of them may get more attention later, but I didn’t want to miss anything, so here goes… 1. “What’s New” Webcast Next Week The first of the AutoCAD LT 2011 series of webcasts begins next week with “What’s New in AutoCAD LT 2011.” You’ve seen some of the new features in recent blog posts (or maybe you’ve downloaded a trial, or even already bought 2011), but here’s your chance to see them live. The 1-hour webcast will be Thursday, May 20th at 10:00 Pacific. Register today! 2. AU Proposals Due FRIDAY May 14th If you’ve ever wanted to be a speaker at Autodesk University, now’s your chance! (Nov. 30 – Dec. 2, Mandalay Bay Hotel, Las Vegas) The AU team is shaking things up this year, looking for all new class content in a variety of formats: 1-, 2-, or 3-hour lectures & labs; 1-hour virtual classes; and 1-hour live Q&A product clinics. Visit the Call for Proposals site to get all the details, including speaker requirements, class requirements, proposal guidelines, and to see what proposals have already been submitted. Speakers for lectures, labs, and virtual classes get free admission to AU and an honorarium. Hope to see you in Vegas! 3. Online Help Search Updated Our User Assistance team has been working hard to fix the search issues in the new online Help system, and they’ve made great progress. The speed is up, and results are improved. If you find something that’s still not working, let us know. 4. New Subscription Tutorials If you’re a Subscription customer, and have ever wondered if you know all there is to know about Accessing the Subscription Center Using Subscription Managing your Subscription wonder no more. A new series of tutorial has been posted to www.autodesk.com/subscriptiontutorials, to help make sure that you’re making the most of the available resources. 5. Snagit 10 is here! Lastly (for today), if you ever need to take screen captures for training manuals, standards documents, reports, or really anything (blog posts), you need to check out Snagit. Every image you’ve seen on this blog in the last 2 years has come from Snagit, as well as every image in the Tips & Tricks booklets, most of them on the product center…if I captured it, I used Snagit. All my videos are recorded & produced from its companion product, Camtasia Studio, an equally awesome product for recording your sreen & voiceover. Snagit 10 just came out yesterday, and it looks like it’s gonna be great. PrintScreen, begone! Go to the original post...
