What I like the best is that taking a screenshot and uploading is very quick and easy. It only takes a few seconds to upload anything you've captured. You can only capture video, GIF, scrolling text, etc.

What's not to like? Great program. It needs support for other operating systems.

When I used in the past, it seemed like setting up the defaults (hotkeys, etc) was more work than it was worth - especially seeing that most computers have native screenshot capture features and at least a baseline image editor.
