The Windows 7 snipping tool is quite possibly the best thing on my PC, and definitely my new favourite toy. No more do I have to press three different keys to do a screenshot, then open GIMP and mess about for ten minutes trying to cut the screenshot into something usable – or even worse, use Paint. The snipping tool lets you take a shot of anything on your screen with just a click-and-drag to select the desired area. You can then highlight things or write on the image inside the snipping tool, and save it out as a PNG.

And then one I took of my desktop containing my snip of Piggynap:
And a snip of the Google image results for ‘cats’:
I always see cool or funny stuff that I want to put on Piggynap, but doing a screenshot was always a massive hassle. The snipping tool is going to help me fill my site with loads more crap!
