STORY: Dan and the STC Conference

Dan took a deep breath. How he loved the smell of the STC trade show
floor.

As he made his way toward the TechSmith booth # 410, he wondered if his
feelings were akin to music-lovers who follow bands across the country -
he too relished seeing TechSmith at different venues, surveying the
distinctive stage setups and watching the various demos.

When he arrived at the booth, the parallels unfolded before him . . . The
conference attendees jostled to get a better view of the demonstrations,
as would an audience at a concert. They silently mouthed the new usage
tips like they would lyrics to a new song. They all subscribed to the
newsletter to get their monthly treat of news, feature articles and
release information. And Dan knew that they all - himself included -
wanted a chance to chat up the intelligent, personable and good-looking
staff as if they were band members that could provide them with the
latest inside info.

As he ambled away, clutching his TechSmith paraphernalia to his chest, he
thought of the parallels he'd seen but then realized - SnagIt made his
heart sing more sweetly than any song ever had.
