Getting in touch with staff, managers, administrators, learners etc., who are scattered around the campus, region, globe becomes a need which is catered for by endless applications.

SendShots is one such tool, as it will let you...

• record a video message and
• send it to whomever you like.

This service is a free one, and all you need in order to set going is a web camera and microphone to record the message. Once you have done so, you simply...

• choose the recipient(s) and
• send the video on its way...

The site is practical, and I think that the lack of bells and whistles makes it a valuable asset. After all, who can go wrong with a tool that bears just three buttons to press about – “record”, “save” and “send”?
