Google Docs Add-Ons to supercharge your experience! (A NEW tips doc I just created.)
Loom - It's the best screen recorder out there! I love this FREE tool.
Act Now! It will always have free features, but it's adding pro features and pricing soon.
- One major change is that only Pro members will have unlimited storage. New people who sign up for Loom will be able to store their 100 most recent videos for free.
- With that said, on the day that we launch Loom Pro, if you choose to keep your Loom Basic account, your new video limit will equal the total videos you've recorded with Loom plus 100. For example, if you've recorded 250 videos by the day we launch Loom Pro, we will add 100 videos to that and you will have a 350 video limit.
- Erskine's trick -- SO - Record a bunch of short videos now to increase your free limit above the 100! You can later delete them, once they do the upgrade. That way you will get the 100 along with all these you have recorded and can later delete.
