It’s been a quiet month or so at the scraster.com blog, but we’ve been keeping busy. Our office has again moved and is now settled in yet another time zone. Our professional screencast work for clients continues and, perhaps most importantly, Scraster has just rolled out the first major update to our website since we began. Having been impressed with the viability of WordPress as a website content management system, Scraster team leader John Basile coded and designed the new Scraster.com website based on the popular K2 WordPress theme.

You may have noticed that Scraster.com v2.0 employs a Lightbox video player. While the Lightbox player was not easy to configure for WordPress and our chosen video hosting site, we are really happy with the end result. Scraster Professional Screencasting now strongly recommends the use of Lightbox 2 or similar technology to all our clients, as it’s a great way to share large videos (especially HD videos) without having a video player taking up valuable webpage real estate.

What do you think of the new site? Is there anything we’ve overlooked or could be doing better? Let us know by commenting below or by emailing info@scraster.com.
